Famous quotes containing the words east, chop and/or light:

    The practice of politics in the East may be defined by one word: dissimulation.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    And would you be a poet
    Before you’ve been to school?
    Ah, well! I hardly thought you
    So absolute a fool.
    First learn to be spasmodic—
    A very simple rule.
    For first you write a sentence,
    And then you chop it small;
    Then mix the bits, and sort them out
    Just as they chance to fall:
    The order of the phrases makes
    No difference at all.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The churches ... have lost much of their authority over youth because they have refused to re-examine their religious sanctions and their dogmatic preaching in the light of modern physiology, psychology and sociology.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
