Famous quotes containing the word authors:

    “Well, most men have bound their eyes with one or another handkerchief, and attached themselves to some of these communities of opinion. This conformity makes them not false in a few particulars, authors of a few lies, but false in all particulars. Their every truth is not quite true. Their two is not the real two, their four not the real four; so that every word they say chagrins us and we know not where to set them right.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I think the authors of that notable instrument [the Declaration of Independence] intended to include all men.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “The praise of ancient authors proceeds not from the reverence of the dead, but from the competition and mutual envy of the living.”
    —Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679)
