Famous quotes containing the word human:
“Fewer and fewer Americans possess objects that have a patina, old furniture, grandparents’ pots and pans—the used things, warm with generations of human touch, ... essential to a human landscape. Instead, we have our paper phantoms, transistorized landscapes. A featherweight portable museum.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“It is almost everywhere the case that soon after it is begotten the greater part of human wisdom is laid to rest in repositories.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
