Famous quotes containing the word productions:

    “Most new things are not good, and die an early death; but those which push themselves forward and by slow degrees force themselves on the attention of mankind are the unconscious productions of human wisdom, and must have honest consideration, and must not be made the subject of unreasoning prejudice.”
    —Thomas Brackett Reed (1839–1902)

    “If in many of my productions terror has been the thesis, I maintain that terror is not of Germany, but of the soul.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “It is well known, that the best productions of the best human intellects, are generally regarded by those intellects as mere immature freshman exercises, wholly worthless in themselves, except as initiatives for entering the great University of God after death.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
