Famous quotes containing the words english and/or society:

    But it was alway yet the trick of our English nation, if they
    have a good thing, to make it too common.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I” is a militant social tendency, working to hold and enlarge its place in the general current of tendencies. So far as it can it waxes, as all life does. To think of it as apart from society is a palpable absurdity of which no one could be guilty who really saw it as a fact of life.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
