Famous quotes containing the words kenneth and/or robinson:

    The traveler to the United States will do well ... to prepare himself for the class-consciousness of the natives. This differs from the already familiar English version in being more extreme and based more firmly on the conviction that the class to which the speaker belongs is inherently superior to all others.
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    Poets and kings are but the clerks of Time,
    Tiering the same dull webs of discontent,
    Clipping the same sad alnage of the years.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
