Famous quotes containing the words master and/or system:
“A master of men was the Goodly Fere,
A mate of the wind and sea,
If they think they ha slain our Goodly Fere
They are fools eternally.
I ha seen him eat o the honey-comb
Sin they nailed him to the tree.”
—Ezra Pound (18851972)
“Fear, coercion, punishment, are the masculine remedies for moral weakness, but statistics show their failure for centuries. Why not change the system and try the education of the moral and intellectual faculties, cheerful surroundings, inspiring influences? Everything in our present system tends to lower the physical vitality, the self-respect, the moral tone, and to harden instead of reforming the criminal.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (18151902)
