Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or woodward:

    Of moral purpose I see no trace in Nature. That is an article of exclusively human manufacture—and very much to our credit.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.
    —C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)
