Famous quotes containing the words notable, artists, worked and/or fox:

    Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Modern conquerors can kill, but do not seem to be able to create. Artists know how to create but cannot really kill. Murderers are only very exceptionally found among artists.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    It doesn’t seem so much to climb a mountain
    You’ve worked around the foot of all your life.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    How much the greatest event it is that ever happened in the world! and how much the best!
    —Charles James Fox (1749–1806)
