Famous quotes containing the words dominant and/or type:

    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)

    “Histories of the world omitted China; if a Chinaman invented compass or movable type or gunpowder we promptly “forgot it” and named their European inventors. In short, we regarded China as a sort of different and quite inconsequential planet.”
