General Councils

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or councils:

“We do not need to minimize the poverty of the ghetto or the suffering inflicted by whites on blacks in order to see that the increasingly dangerous and unpredictable conditions of middle- class life have given rise to similar strategies for survival. Indeed the attraction of black culture for disaffected whites suggests that black culture now speaks to a general condition.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)

“In bridge clubs and in councils of state, the passions are the same.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
