Famous quotes containing the words reception and/or legacy:

    “To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    “What is popularly called fame is nothing but an empty name and a legacy from paganism.”
    —Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
