Famous quotes containing the words levels of, levels and/or care:

    Pushkin’s composition is first of all and above all a phenomenon of style, and it is from this flowered rim that I have surveyed its seep of Arcadian country, the serpentine gleam of its imported brooks, the miniature blizzards imprisoned in round crystal, and the many-hued levels of literary parody blending in the melting distance.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    The only inequalities that matter begin in the mind. It is not income levels but differences in mental equipment that keep people apart, breed feelings of inferiority.
    Jacquetta Hawkes (b. 1910)

    I believe we shall come to care about people less and less.... The more people one knows the easier it becomes to replace them. It’s one of the curses of London.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
