Famous quotes containing the words male and/or line:
“We have seen over and over that white male historians in general have tended to dismiss any history they didnt themselves write, on the grounds that it is unserious, unscholarly, a fad, too political, merely oral and thus unreliable.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“Expediency of literature, reason of literature, lawfulness of writing down a thought, is questioned; much is to say on both sides, and, while the fight waxes hot, thou, dearest scholar, stick to thy foolish task, add a line every hour, and between whiles add a line.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
