Famous quotes containing the words task, group, visible and/or light:

    Almost all scholarly research carries practical and political implications. Better that we should spell these out ourselves than leave that task to people with a vested interest in stressing only some of the implications and falsifying others. The idea that academics should remain “above the fray” only gives ideologues license to misuse our work.
    Stephanie Coontz (b. 1944)

    Stripped of ethical rationalizations and philosophical pretensions, a crime is anything that a group in power chooses to prohibit.
    Freda Adler (b. 1934)

    Even a purely moral act that has no hope of any immediate and visible political effect can gradually and indirectly, over time, gain in political significance.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)

    The wonder of light is your familiar tale,
    Pert wench, down to the nineteenth century:
    Mr. Rimbaud the Frenchman’s apostasy
    Asserts the argument that you are stale,
    Flat and unprofitable, importunate but pale,
    Lithe Corpse!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
