Famous quotes containing the words notable, people and/or church:
“Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“The average Southerner has the speech patterns of someone slipping in and out of consciousness. I can change my shoes and socks faster than most people in Mississippi can speak a sentence.”
—Bill Bryson (b. 1951)
“The church is precisely that against which Jesus preached—and against which he taught his disciples to fight.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
