Famous quotes containing the words julius, lothar and/or meyer:

    To win by strategy is no less the role of a general than to win by arms.
    Julius Caesar [Gaius Julius Caesar] (100–44 B.C.)

    Any plan conceived in moderation must fail when the circumstances are set in extremes.
    —Klemens Wenzel Neponuk Lothar Von, Prince Metternich (1773–1859)

    ... the idea of a classless society is ... a disastrous mirage which cannot be maintained without tyranny of the few over the many. It is even more pernicious culturally than politically, not because the monolithic state forces the party line upon its intellectuals and artists, but because it has no social patterns to reflect.
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
