Famous quotes containing the words contemporary and/or campaigns:

    “Men are so charmed with valor that they have pleased themselves with being called lions, leopards, eagles and dragons, from the animals contemporary with us in the geologic formations.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.”
    —Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
