Elevation Angle

Famous quotes containing the words elevation and/or angle:

“All our lives we fought against exalting the individual, against the elevation of the single person, and long ago we were over and done with the business of a hero, and here it comes up again: the glorification of one personality. This is not good at all. I am just like everybody else.”
—Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870–1924)

“Modesty is the only sure bait when you angle for praise.”
