Endowment Age

Famous quotes containing the words endowment and/or age:

    “... it matters not what natural endowment a race may have if it prostitutes itself to the service of death.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    “Every Age has its own peculiar faith.... Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.”
    —Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
