Famous quotes containing the word england:
“Solidity, caution, integrity, efficiency. Lack of imagination, hypocrisy. These qualities characterize the middle classes in every country, but in England they are national characteristics.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“If men will believe it, sua si bona norint, there are no more quiet Tempes, nor more poetic and Arcadian lives, than may be lived in these New England dwellings. We thought that the employment of their inhabitants by day would be to tend the flowers and herds, and at night, like the shepherds of old, to cluster and give names to the stars from the river banks.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Always in England if you had the type of brain that was capable of understanding T.S. Eliots poetry or Kants logic, you could be sure of finding large numbers of people who would hate you violently.”
—D.J. Taylor (b. 1960)
