Famous quotes containing the words notable, egyptian and/or writers:

    “Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “What was I saying? An Egyptian king
    Once touched long fingers, which are not anything.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “Painters of paintings, writers of books, never could tell the half.”
    —Lorenz Hart (1895–1943)
