Famous quotes containing the words surviving, titles and/or fragments:

    “Never have anything to do with the near surviving representatives of anyone whose name appears in the death column of the Times as having “passed away.””
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    “We have to be despised by somebody whom we regard as above us, or we are not happy; we have to have somebody to worship and envy, or we cannot be content. In America we manifest this in all the ancient and customary ways. In public we scoff at titles and hereditary privilege, but privately we hanker after them, and when we get a chance we buy them for cash and a daughter.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “I believe that the mind can be permanently profaned by the habit of attending to trivial things, so that all our thoughts shall be tinged with triviality. Our very intellect shall be macadamized, as it were,—its foundation broken into fragments for the wheels of travel to roll over.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
