Treat Imports

Famous quotes containing the words treat and/or imports:

“You must treat the days respectfully, you must be a day yourself, and not interrogate it like a college professor.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“French rhetorical models are too narrow for the English tradition. Most pernicious of French imports is the notion that there is no person behind a text. Is there anything more affected, aggressive, and relentlessly concrete than a Parisan intellectual behind his/her turgid text? The Parisian is a provincial when he pretends to speak for the universe.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
