Famous quotes containing the word general:

    “The general feeling was, and for a long time remained, that one had several children in order to keep just a few. As late as the seventeenth century . . . people could not allow themselves to become too attached to something that was regarded as a probable loss. This is the reason for certain remarks which shock our present-day sensibility, such as Montaigne’s observation, “I have lost two or three children in their infancy, not without regret, but without great sorrow.””
    —Philippe Ariés (20th century)

    “To judge from a single conversation, he made the impression of a narrow and very English mind; of one who paid for his rare elevation by general tameness and conformity. Off his own beat, his opinions were of no value.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Must I remind you that a chain is no stronger than its weakest link?”
    —Jerome Cady, U.S. screenwriter, and Lewis Milestone. General Mitsubi (Richard Loo)
