Famous quotes containing the words brother, celebrity and/or edition:
“Then gently scan your brother Man,
Still gentler sister Woman;
Though they may gang a kennin wrang,
To step aside is human:”

“The celebrity is a person who is known for his well-knownness.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
