Famous quotes containing the words major, wins and/or flat:

    “What was lost in the European cataclysm was not only the Jewish past—the whole life of a civilization—but also a major share of the Jewish future.... [ellipsis in source] It was not only the intellect of a people in its prime that was excised, but the treasure of a people in its potential.”
    —Cynthia Ozick (b. 1928)

    “The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “And thou, all-shaking thunder,
    Strike flat the thick rotundity o’ the world!
    Crack nature’s moulds, all germens spill at once
    That makes ingrateful man!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
