Indifferent

Famous quotes containing the word indifferent:

    We too had many pretty toys when young;
    A law indifferent to blame or praise,
    To bribe or threat; habits that made old wrong
    Melt down, as it were wax in the sun’s rays;
    Public opinion ripening for so long
    We thought it would outlive all future days.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The work of art assumes the existence of the perfect spectator, and is indifferent to the fact that no such person exists.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    All I desire for my own burial, is not to be buried alive; but how or where, I think, must be entirely indifferent to every rational creature.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
