Individual World Records

Famous quotes containing the words individual, world and/or records:

    To name oneself is the first act of both the poet and the revolutionary. When we take away the right to an individual name, we symbolically take away the right to be an individual. Immigration officials did this to refugees; husbands routinely do it to wives.
    Erica Jong (b. 1942)

    Thus truth’s established and borne out,
    Though circumstanced with dark and doubt—
    Though by a world of doubt surrounded.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The camera relieves us of the burden of memory. It surveys us like God, and it surveys for us. Yet no other god has been so cynical, for the camera records in order to forget.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
