Famous quotes containing the words common and/or materials:

    Society cannot share a common communication system so long as it is split into warring factions.
    Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)

    In how few words, for instance, the Greeks would have told the story of Abelard and Heloise, making but a sentence of our classical dictionary.... We moderns, on the other hand, collect only the raw materials of biography and history, “memoirs to serve for a history,” which is but materials to serve for a mythology.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
