Famous quotes containing the word chiefly:
“Our greatest foes, and whom we must chiefly combat, are within.”
—Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)
“Our literature, despite several false starts that promised much, is chiefly remarkable, now as always, for its respectable mediocrity.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“What chiefly distinguishes the daily press of the United States from the press of all other countries is not its lack of truthfulness or even its lack of dignity and honor, for these deficiencies are common to the newspapers everywhere, but its incurable fear of ideas, its constant effort to evade the discussion of fundamentals by translating all issues into a few elemental fears, its incessant reduction of all reflection to mere emotion. It is, in the true sense, never well-informed.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
