Famous quotes containing the words selected, modern, chinese and/or writers:

    The final flat of the hoe’s approval stamp
    Is reserved for the bed of a few selected seed.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    ... it must be obvious that in the agitation preceding the enactment of [protective] laws the zeal of the reformers would be second to the zeal of the highly paid night-workers who are anxious to hold their trade against an invasion of skilled women. To this sort of interference with her working life the modern woman can have but one attitude: I am not a child.
    Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    One alone in a Chinese square
    confronted tanks, while others fled.
    He stood for freedom for us all,
    but few care now if he’s jailed or dead.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    The writer isn’t made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century.
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)
