Desired Effect

Famous quotes containing the words desired and/or effect:

    “You who desired so much—in vain to ask—
    Yet fed your hunger like an endless task,
    Dared dignify the labor, bless the quest—
    Achieved that stillness ultimately best,”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    “The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
