Extinct Relatives

Famous quotes containing the words extinct and/or relatives:

    One realises, with horror, that the race of men is almost extinct in Europe. Only Christ-like heroes and woman-worshipping Don Juans, and rabid equality-mongrels. The old, hardy, indomitable male is gone.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The poor in bustling towns aren’t called upon, but the rich deep in the mountains have relatives visiting them from afar.
    Chinese proverb.
