Famous quotes containing the word greece:
“All that grave weight of America
Cancelled! Like Greece and Rome.
The future in ruins!”

“It was modesty that invented the word “philosopher” in Greece and left the magnificent overweening presumption in calling oneself wise to the actors of the spirit—the modesty of such monsters of pride and sovereignty as Pythagoras, as Plato.”
