Famous quotes containing the words list, modern, scholars and/or studies:

    “Lastly, his tomb
    Shall list and founder in the troughs of grass
    And none shall speak his name.”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    “Civilization is a conspiracy.... Modern life is the silent compact of comfortable folk to keep up pretences.”
    —John Buchan (1875–1940)

    “You are the majority—in number and intelligence; therefore you are the force—which is justice. Some are scholars, others are owners; a glorious day will come when the scholars will be owners and the owners scholars. Then your power will be complete, and no man will protest against it.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “Even if one studies to an old age, one will never finish learning.”
    —Chinese proverb.
