Famous quotes containing the words current, composition and/or court:

    “The work of the political activist inevitably involves a certain tension between the requirement that positions be taken on current issues as they arise and the desire that one’s contributions will somehow survive the ravages of time.”
    —Angela Davis (b. 1944)

    “The composition of a tragedy requires testicles.”
    —Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    “Universal empire is the prerogative of a writer. His concerns are with all mankind, and though he cannot command their obedience, he can assign them their duty. The Republic of Letters is more ancient than monarchy, and of far higher character in the world than the vassal court of Britain.”
    —Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
