Famous quotes containing the words original and/or productions:

    “The ideas of an age are most abundant where they are not crowded by original ideas.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “Most new things are not good, and die an early death; but those which push themselves forward and by slow degrees force themselves on the attention of mankind are the unconscious productions of human wisdom, and must have honest consideration, and must not be made the subject of unreasoning prejudice.”
    —Thomas Brackett Reed (1839–1902)
