Famous quotes containing the word produced:

All you who drink light and stroke the air
Come back, seeking the night, and cry
To strict Rapunzel to let down her hair.”

—Ouida [Marie Louise De La Ramée] (1839–1908)
“Do they merit vitriol, even a drop of it? Yes, because they corrupt the young, persuading them that the mature world, which produced Beethoven and Schweitzer, sets an even higher value on the transient anodynes of youth than does youth itself.... They are the Hollow Men. They are electronic lice.”
—Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)
