Means

Famous quotes containing the word means:

“Everywhere we are told that our human resources are all to be used, that our civilization itself means the uses of everything it has—the inventions, the histories, every scrap of fact. But there is one kind of knowledge—infinitely precious, time- resistant more than monuments, here to be passed between the generations in any way it may be: never to be used. And that is poetry.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

““Just” or “right” means nothing but what is to the interest of the stronger.”
—Thrasymachus or Plato (fl. 430–410 B.C.)

“Men’s minds must be free, and that means the minds of all, not the minds of a select few.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
