Famous quotes containing the words webster and/or cary:
“Heaven-gates are not so highly arched
As princes’ palaces: they that enter there
Must go upon their knees.”
—John Webster (1580–1625)
“For me, the principal fact of life is the free mind. For good and evil, man is a free creative spirit. This produces the very queer world we live in, a world in continuous creation and therefore continuous change and insecurity. A perpetually new and lively world, but a dangerous one, full of tragedy and injustice. A world in everlasting conflict between the new idea and the old allegiances, new arts and new inventions against the old establishment.”
—Joyce Cary (1888–1957)
