Famous quotes containing the words race, wins, single and/or season:
“I see the callus on his sole,
The disappearing last of him
And of his race starvation slim,
Oh, years agoten thousand years.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“Civilization is a process in the service of Eros, whose purpose is to combine single human individuals, and after that families, then races, peoples and nations, into one great unity, the unity of mankind. Why this has to happen, we do not know; the work of Eros is precisely this.”
—Sigmund Freud (18561939)
“To me a book is a message from the gods to mankind; or, if not, should never be published at all.... A message from the gods should be delivered at once. It is damnably blasphemous to talk about the autumn season and so on. How dare the author or publisher demand a price for doing his duty, the highest and most honourable to which a man can be called?”
—Aleister Crowley (18751947)
