Famous quotes containing the words kenneth g, kenneth and/or wilson:

    Well, well, perhaps I am a bit of a talker. A popular fellow such as I am—my friends get round me—we chaff, we sparkle, we tell witty stories—and somehow my tongue gets wagging. I have the gift of conversation. I’ve been told I ought to have a salon, whatever that may be.
    Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)

    More than a thousand years it is since she
    Was beautiful: she trod the living grass;
    She saw the clouds.
    —James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)

    The treasury of America lies in those ambitions and those energies that cannot be restricted to a special, favored class. It depends upon the inventions of unknown men; upon the originations of unknown men, upon the ambitions of unknown men. Every country is renewed out of the ranks of the unknown, not out of the ranks of those already famous and powerful and in control.
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
