Famous quotes containing the word discovery:

    “One of the laudable by-products of the Freudian quackery is the discovery that lying, in most cases, is involuntary and inevitable—that the liar can no more avoid it than he can avoid blinking his eyes when a light flashes or jumping when a bomb goes off behind him.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “As the mother of a son, I do not accept that alienation from me is necessary for his discovery of himself. As a woman, I will not cooperate in demeaning womanly things so that he can be proud to be a man. I like to think the women in my son’s future are counting on me.”
    —Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    “There is a great discovery still to be made in literature, that of paying literary men by the quantity they do not write.”
    —Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
