Famous quotes containing the words crazy, horse and/or war:
“What else are we gonna live by if not dreams? We need to believe in something. What would really drive us crazy is to believe this reality we run into every day is all there is. If I don’t believe there’s that happy ending out there—that will-you- marry-me in the sky—I can’t keep working today.”
—Jill Robinson (b. 1936)
“By the “mud-sill” theory it is assumed that labor and education are incompatible; and any practical combination of them impossible. According to that theory, a blind horse upon a tread-mill, is a perfect illustration of what a laborer should be—all the better for being blind, that he could not tread out of place, or kick understandingly.... Free labor insists on universal education.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“... near a war it is always not very near.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
