Exclusive

Famous quotes containing the word exclusive:

    Every Englishman is convinced of one thing, viz.: That to be an Englishman is to belong to the most exclusive club there is.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    Everything can change, but not the language that we carry inside us, like a world more exclusive and final than one’s mother’s womb.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    With respect to a true culture and manhood, we are essentially provincial still, not metropolitan,—mere Jonathans. We are provincial, because we do not find at home our standards; because we do not worship truth, but the reflection of truth; because we are warped and narrowed by an exclusive devotion to trade and commerce and manufacturers and agriculture and the like, which are but means, and not the end.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
