Famous quotes containing the words talking and/or terms:
“At this time in American history, we are like ghosts talking gibberish through different dimensions, and stupid men do not make good make good mediums.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
