Famous quotes containing the words major and/or events:

    “The major men
    That is different. They are characters beyond
    Reality, composed thereof. They are
    The fictive man created out of men.
    They are men but artificial men.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “By the power elite, we refer to those political, economic, and military circles which as an intricate set of overlapping cliques share decisions having at least national consequences. In so far as national events are decided, the power elite are those who decide them.”
    —C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
