Groups

Famous quotes containing the word groups:

    “... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    “Writers and politicians are natural rivals. Both groups try to make the world in their own images; they fight for the same territory.”
    —Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    “Trees appeared in groups and singly, revolving coolly and blandly, displaying the latest fashions. The blue dampness of a ravine. A memory of love, disguised as a meadow. Wispy clouds—the greyhounds of heaven.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
