Considered Obsolete

Famous quotes containing the words considered and/or obsolete:

    Many readers judge of the power of a book by the shock it gives their feelings—as some savage tribes determine the power of muskets by their recoil; that being considered best which fairly prostrates the purchaser.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    To use an obsolete Latin word, I might say, Ex Oriente lux; ex Oriente FRUX. From the East light; from the West fruit.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
