Famous quotes containing the words historically and/or significant:
“Contact with men who wield power and authority still leaves an intangible sense of repulsion. Its very like being in close proximity to faecal matter, the faecal embodiment of something unmentionable, and you wonder what it is made of and when it acquired its historically sacred character.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“Priests and physicians should never look one another in the face. They have no common ground, nor is there any to mediate between them. When the one comes, the other goes. They could not come together without laughter, or a significant silence, for the ones profession is a satire on the others, and eithers success would be the others failure.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
