Scion Societies

Famous quotes containing the words scion and/or societies:

    We marry
    A gentler scion to the wildest stock,
    And make conceive a bark of baser kind
    By bud of nobler race. This is an art
    Which does mend nature—change it rather; but
    The art itself is nature.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
