Consent Judgments

Famous quotes containing the words consent and/or judgments:

“I should consent to breed under pressure, if I were convinced in any way of the reasonableness of reproducing the species. But my nerves and the nerves of any woman I could live with three months, would produce only a victim ... lacking in impulse, a mere bundle of discriminations. If I were wealthy I might subsidize a stud of young peasants, or a tribal group in Tahiti.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“Not one of our mortal gauges is suitable for evaluating non-existence, for making judgments about that which is not a person.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
