Famous quotes containing the words major, minor, works, changing and/or keynote:

    “I have not had major experience of talking with people once pronounced brain-dead, but I think we could be safe in saying he did not have great zip.”
    —Sir Howard Smith (b. 1919)

    “If, for instance, they have heard something from the postman, they attribute it to “a semi-official statement”; if they have fallen into conversation with a stranger at a bar, they can conscientiously describe him as “a source that has hitherto proved unimpeachable.” It is only when the journalist is reporting a whim of his own, and one to which he attaches minor importance, that he defines it as the opinion of “well-informed circles.””
    —Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)

    “...A shadow now occasionally crossed my simple, sanguine, and life enjoying mind, a notion that I was never really going to accomplish those powerful literary works which would blow a noble trumpet to social generosity and noblesse oblige before the world. What? should I find myself always planning and never achieving ... a richly complicated and yet firmly unified novel?”
    —Sarah N. Cleghorn (1876–1959)

    “Minnaloushe creeps through the grass
    Alone, important and wise,
    And lifts to the changing moon
    His changing eyes.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “... the keynote of government is injustice.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
