Famous quotes containing the words chimera and/or curse:

    What a chimera then is man. What a novelty! What a monster, what a chaos, what a contradiction, what a prodigy. Judge of all things, imbecile worm of the earth; depositary of truth, a sink of uncertainty and error: the pride and refuse of the universe.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    In our time, the curse is monetary illiteracy, just as inability to read plain print was the curse of earlier centuries.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
