Famous quotes containing the words species and/or list:

    “Any reading not of a vicious species must be a good substitute for the amusements too apt to fill up the leisure of the labouring classes.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)

    “Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
    —Janet Frame (b. 1924)
