Famous quotes containing the words external, persistent and/or memory:
“Merely external emancipation has made of the modern woman an artificial being.... Now, woman is confronted with the necessity of emancipating herself from emancipation, if she really desires to be free.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“The smallest flower is a thought, a life answering to some feature of the Great Whole, of whom they have a persistent intuition.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“Those who believe in their truth—the only ones whose imprint is retained by the memory of men—leave the earth behind them strewn with corpses. Religions number in their ledgers more murders than the bloodiest tyrannies account for, and those whom humanity has called divine far surpass the most conscientious murderers in their thirst for slaughter.”
—E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)
