Famous quotes containing the words brother, celebrity and/or edition:
“In the moment when you make the least petition to God, though it be but a silent wish that he may approve you, or add one moment to your life,do you not, in the very act, necessarily exclude all other beings from your thought? In that act, the soul stands alone with God, and Jesus is no more present to your mind than your brother or your child.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“A celebrity is one who is known to many persons he is glad he doesnt know.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gullivers Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a childrens book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. Thats what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
