Famous quotes containing the words davis and/or appeared:

    Man is by nature a pragmatic materialist, a mechanic, a lover of gadgets and gadgetry; and these are qualities that characterize the “establishment” which regulates modern society: pragmatism, materialism, mechanization, and gadgetry. Woman, on the other hand, is a practical idealist, a humanitarian with a strong sense of noblesse oblige, an altruist rather than a capitalist.
    —Elizabeth Gould Davis (b. 1910)

    The genius of Byron, which appeared at the beginning of this century, is like a funeral torch sculptured on our cradles.
    Emilio Castelar Y Ripoll (1832–1899)
