Famous quotes containing the words surviving, titles and/or fragments:

    “For my own part, I commonly attend more to nature than to man, but any affecting human event may blind our eyes to natural objects. I was so absorbed in him as to be surprised whenever I detected the routine of the natural world surviving still, or met persons going about their affairs indifferent.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I have known a German Prince with more titles than subjects, and a Spanish nobleman with more names than shirts.”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

    “It is not, truly speaking, the labour that is divided; but the men: divided into mere segments of men—broken into small fragments and crumbs of life, so that all the little piece of intelligence that is left in a man is not enough to make a pin, or a nail, but exhausts itself in making the point of a pin or the head of a nail.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
