Famous quotes containing the words main and/or works:

    Aggression, the writer’s main source of energy.
    Ted Solotaroff (b. 1928)

    My plan of instruction is extremely simple and limited. They learn, on week-days, such coarse works as may fit them for servants. I allow of no writing for the poor. My object is not to make fanatics, but to train up the lower classes in habits of industry and piety.
    Hannah More (1745–1833)
