Famous quotes containing the words degree and/or plan:
“Words are made for a certain exactness of thought, as tears are for a certain degree of pain. What is least distinct cannot be named; what is clearest is unutterable.”

“The inference is, that God has restated the superiority of the West. God always does like that when a thousand white people surround one dark one.

A certain Javanese man who sticks up for Indonesian Independence is very lowdown by the papers, and suspected of being a Japanese puppet.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
