Western Border

Famous quotes containing the words western and/or border:

    It is fatally easy for Western folk, who have discarded chastity as a value for themselves, to suppose that it can have no value for anyone else. At the same time as Californians try to re-invent “celibacy,” by which they seem to mean perverse restraint, the rest of us call societies which place a high value on chastity “backward.”
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    Liberal hopefulness
    Regards death as a mere border to an improving picture.
    William Empson (1906–1984)
