Fullerton

Famous quotes containing the word fullerton:

    Conventions, at the present moment, are really menaced. The most striking sign of this is that people are now making unconventionality a social virtue, instead of an unsocial vice. The switches have been opened, and the laden trains must take their chance of a destination.
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    Successful socialism depends on the perfectibility of man. Unless all, or nearly all, men are high-minded and clear-sighted, it is bound to be a rotten failure in any but a physical sense. Even through it is altruism, socialism means materialism. You can guarantee the things of the body to every one, but you cannot guarantee the things of the spirit to every one; you can guarantee only that the opportunity to seek them shall not be denied to any one who chooses to seek them.
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    It is a poor cause which has to be lied for regularly.
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
