Famous quotes containing the words barons and/or layton:

    “We live by our imaginations, by our admirations, by our sentiments. The child walks amid heaps of illusions, which he does not like to have disturbed. The boy, how sweet to him his fancy! how dear the story of barons and battles! What a hero he is, whilst he feeds on his heroes! What a debt is his to imaginative books!”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Since I no longer expect
    anything from mankind except
    madness,
    meanness, and mendacity;
    egotism,
    cowardice,
    and
    self-delusion,
    I have stopped
    being a
    misanthrope.”
    —Irving Layton (b. 1912)
