Famous quotes containing the words homage and/or parody:
“Did men but consider that the sun, moon, and stars, and every other object of the senses, are only so many sensations in their minds, which have no other existence but barely being perceived, doubtless they would never fall down and worship their own ideas; but rather address their homage to that eternal invisible Mind which produces and sustains all things.”
—George Berkeley (16851753)
“Satire is a lesson, parody is a game.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (18991977)
