Famous quotes containing the word mode:

    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    A man of genius has a right to any mode of expression.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    The love of their country is with them only a mode of flattering its master; as soon as they think that master can no longer hear, they speak of everything with a frankness which is the more startling because those who listen to it become responsible.
    Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)
