Harper Collins Publishers

Famous quotes containing the words harper, collins and/or publishers:

    We are told that men protect us; that they are generous, even chivalric in their protection. Gentlemen, if your protectors were women, and they took all your property and your children, and paid you half as much for your work, though as well or better done than your own, would you think much of the chivalry which permitted you to sit in street-cars and picked up your pocket- handkerchief?
    Mary B. Clay, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 3, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    Each lonely scene shall thee restore;
    For thee the tear be duly shed;
    Beloved till life can charm no more,
    And mourn’d till Pity’s self be dead.
    —William Collins (1721–1759)

    Time & Co. are, after all, the only quite honest and trustworthy publishers that we know.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
