Famous quotes containing the words variant and/or names:

    ““I am willing to die for my country” is a variant of “I am willing to kill for my country.””
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Every man who has lived for fifty years has buried a whole world or even two; he has grown used to its disappearance and accustomed to the new scenery of another act: but suddenly the names and faces of a time long dead appear more and more often on his way, calling up series of shades and pictures kept somewhere, “just in case” in the endless catacombs of the memory, making him smile or sigh, and sometimes almost weep.”
    —Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
