Famous quotes containing the words directions and/or authors:
“Have we any control over being born?, my friend asked in despair. No, the job is done for us while were sleeping, so to speak, and when we wake up everything is all set. We merely appear, like an ornate celebrity wheeled out in a wheelchair. I dont remember, my friend claimed. No need to, I said: what need have us free-loaders for any special alertness? Were done for.”
—Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)
“The genius of the United States is not best or most in its executives or legislatures, nor in its ambassadors or authors or colleges, or churches, or parlors, nor even in its newspapers or inventors, but always most in the common people.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
