General Sir Douglas

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or douglas:

    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)

    Many a man who thinks to found a home discovers that he has merely opened a tavern for his friends.
    —Norman Douglas (1868–1952)
