Famous quotes containing the words russell, views and/or society:

    The snow had begun in the gloaming,
    And busily all the night
    Had been heaping field and highway
    With a silence deep and white.
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    No work of art ever puts forward views. Views belong to people who are not artists.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    The difficult and risky task of meeting and mastering the new—whether it be the settlement of new lands or the initiation of new ways of life—is not undertaken by the vanguard of society but by its rear. It is the misfits, failures, fugitives, outcasts and their like who are among the first to grapple with the new.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
