Famous quotes containing the words private and/or edition:
“Public scandal is what makes the offense; sinning in private is not sinning at all.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
