Famous quotes containing the words cheapest and/or edge:
“The courage of a soldier is found to be the cheapest and most common quality of human nature.”
—Edward Gibbon (1737–1794)
“The real risks for any artist are taken ... in pushing the work to the limits of what is possible, in the attempt to increase the sum of what it is possible to think. Books become good when they go to this edge and risk falling over it—when they endanger the artist by reason of what he has, or has not, artistically dared.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
