Famous quotes containing the words information and/or scent:
“But while ignorance can make you insensitive, familiarity can also numb. Entering the second half-century of an information age, our cumulative knowledge has changed the level of what appalls, what stuns, what shocks.”

Their scent survives their close:
But the rose’s scent is bitterness
To him that loved the rose.”
