Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or people:

    “Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “POET
    If not in a place, where are the People weeping?
    LIBERAL
    They creep weeping in the face, not place.
    POET
    Is it something with which we may cope
    The weeping, the creeping, the peepee-ing, the peeping?”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
