Famous quotes containing the words seth and/or goldman:

    We are supposed to be the children of Seth; but Seth is too much of an effete nonentity to deserve ancestral regard. No, we are the sons of Cain, and with violence can be associated the attacks on sound, stone, wood and metal that produced civilisation.
    Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)

    Poor human nature, what horrible crimes have been committed in thy name!
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
