Greek People

Famous quotes containing the words greek and/or people:

“The gothic is singular in this; one seems easily at home in the renaissance; one is not too strange in the Byzantine; as for the Roman, it is ourselves; and we could walk blindfolded through every chink and cranny of the Greek mind; all these styles seem modern when we come close to them; but the gothic gets away.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

“Those are the people that sing
when they aren’t quite
sure.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
