Famous quotes containing the word recognition:

    “Design in art, is a recognition of the relation between various things, various elements in the creative flux. You can’t invent a design. You recognise it, in the fourth dimension. That is, with your blood and your bones, as well as with your eyes.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “I waited and worked, and watched the inferior exalted for nearly thirty years; and when recognition came at last, it was too late to alter events, or to make a difference in living.”
    —Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)

    “No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
