Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “During the long ages of class rule, which are just beginning to cease, only one form of sovereignty has been assigned to all men—that, namely, over all women. Upon these feeble and inferior companions all men were permitted to avenge the indignities they suffered from so many men to whom they were forced to submit.”
    —Mary Putnam Jacobi (1842–1906)

    “The man who is admired for the ingenuity of his larceny is almost always rediscovering some earlier form of fraud. The basic forms are all known, have all been practicised. The manners of capitalism improve. The morals may not.”
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    “I am a communist because I believe that the Communist idea is a state form of Christianity.”
    —Alexander Zhuravlyov (b. 1924)
