Famous quotes containing the words key and/or west:

    “The key to the age may be this, or that, or the other, as the young orators describe; the key to all ages is—Imbecility: imbecility in the vast majority of men, at all times, and even in heroes, in all but certain eminent moments: victims of gravity, customs and fear. This gives force to the strong,—that the multitude have no habit of self-reliance or original action.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Personality is the most important thing to an actress’s success.”
    —Mae West (1892–1980)
