Famous quotes containing the words high and/or authority:

    No men who really think deeply about women retain a high opinion of them; men either despise women or they have never thought seriously about them.
    Otto Weininger (1880–1903)

    The great problem of American life [is] the riddle of authority: the difficulty of finding a way, within a liberal and individualistic social order, of living in harmonious and consecrated submission to something larger than oneself.... A yearning for self-transcendence and submission to authority [is] as deeply rooted as the lure of individual liberation.
    Wilfred M. McClay, educator, author. The Masterless: Self and Society in Modern America, p. 4, University of North Carolina Press (1994)
