Famous quotes containing the words eskimos and/or season:

    Lieutenant Hirth: The Eskimos are racially as low as Negroes.
    The Factor: What’s the matter with Negroes?
    Lieutenant Hirth: They’re semi-apes. Only one degree above the Jews.
    Emeric Pressburger (1902–1988)

    To me a book is a message from the gods to mankind; or, if not, should never be published at all.... A message from the gods should be delivered at once. It is damnably blasphemous to talk about the autumn season and so on. How dare the author or publisher demand a price for doing his duty, the highest and most honourable to which a man can be called?
    Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
