Famous quotes containing the words james and/or miller:

    When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.
    —William James (1842–1910)

    The prisoner is not the one who has commited a crime, but the one who clings to his crime and lives it over and over.
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)
