Famous quotes containing the words general and/or usage:
“Every general increase of freedom is accompanied by some degeneracy, attributable to the same causes as the freedom.”

“Pythagoras, Locke, Socrates—but pages
Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
