Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or scholars:

    “Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    “All is possible,
    Who so list believe;
    Trust therefore first, and after preve,
    As men wed ladies by license and leave,
    All is possible.”
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    “Statistics justify and scholars seize
    The salients of colonial policy.
    What is that to the white child hacked in bed?
    To savages, expendable as Jews?”
    —Derek Walcott (b. 1930)
