Famous quotes containing the words newly, published and/or drama:

    The flags are natures newly found.
    Rifles grow sharper on the sight.

    From which no soft sleeve relieves us.
    Fate is the present desperado.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Each class of society has its own requirements; but it may be said that every class teaches the one immediately below it; and if the highest class be ignorant, uneducated, loving display, luxuriousness, and idle, the same spirit will prevail in humbler life.
    —First published in Girls’ Home Companion (1895)

    War is the supreme drama of a completely mechanized society.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
