Famous quotes containing the word names:

    “Watt’s need of semantic succour was at times so great that he would set to trying names on things, and on himself, almost as a woman hats.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    “The pangs of conscience, where are the pangs of conscience? Orestes and Clytemnestra, Reinhold doesn’t even know the names of those fine folk. He simply hopes, heartily and sincerely, that Franz is dead as a doornail and won’t be found.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    “All nationalisms are at heart deeply concerned with names: with the most immaterial and original human invention. Those who dismiss names as a detail have never been displaced; but the peoples on the peripheries are always being displaced. That is why they insist upon their continuity—their links with their dead and the unborn.”
    —John Berger (b. 1926)
