Supports

Famous quotes containing the word supports:

“They should not play life, or study it merely, while the community supports them at this expensive game, but earnestly live it from beginning to end.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Sculpture is made with two instruments and some supports and pretty air.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

“The tendency of the casual mind is to pick out or stumble upon a sample which supports or defies its prejudices, and then to make it the representative of a whole class.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
