Famous quotes containing the words greek and/or form:

    “It is an elegant refinement that God learned Greek when he wanted to become a writer—and that he did not learn it better.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “In America every woman has her set of girl-friends; some are cousins, the rest are gained at school. These form a permanent committee who sit on each other’s affairs, who “come out” together, marry and divorce together, and who end as those groups of bustling, heartless well-informed club-women who govern society. Against them the Couple of Ehepaar is helpless and Man in their eyes but a biological interlude.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
