Famous quotes containing the words man and/or stands:

    And then a tall fat man with stringy hair
    And a manner that was innocent of sin,
    His galluses greasy, his eyes coldly gray,
    Appeared, and with a gravely learned air
    Spoke from the deep coherence of hell....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    There is a continual exchange of ideas between all minds of a generation. Journalists, popular novelists, illustrators, and cartoonists adapt the truths discovered by the powerful intellects for the multitude. It is like a spiritual flood, like a gush that pours into multiple cascades until it forms the great moving sheet of water that stands for the mentality of a period.
    Auguste Rodin (1849–1917)
