Famous quotes containing the words authors of and/or authors:

    “Well, most men have bound their eyes with one or another handkerchief, and attached themselves to some of these communities of opinion. This conformity makes them not false in a few particulars, authors of a few lies, but false in all particulars. Their every truth is not quite true. Their two is not the real two, their four not the real four; so that every word they say chagrins us and we know not where to set them right.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I think the authors of that notable instrument [the Declaration of Independence] intended to include all men.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
