Famous quotes containing the words british, horse and/or society:

    In New York—whose subway trains in particular have been “tattooed” with a brio and an energy to put our own rude practitioners to shame—not an inch of free space is spared except that of advertisements.... Even the most chronically dispossessed appear prepared to endorse the legitimacy of the “haves.”
    Gilbert Adair, British author, critic. “Cleaning and Cleansing,” Myths and Memories (1986)

    But when his horse had put its hoof
    Into a rabbit hole
    He dropped upon his head and died.
    His lady saw it all
    And dropped and died thereon, for she
    Loved him with her soul.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Currently, U.S. society has been encouraged by its political and subsidized mass-media intelligentsia to view U.S. life as a continual “morning in America” paradise, where the only social problems occur in the inner cities. Psychologists call this denial.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
