Life Raft Debate

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or debate:

    “When Learning’s Triumph o’er her barb’rous Foes
    First rear’d the Stage, immortal Shakespear rose;
    Each Change of many-colour’d Life he drew,
    Exhausted Worlds, and then imagin’d new:”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    “A great deal of unnecessary worry is indulged in by theatregoers trying to understand what Bernard Shaw means. They are not satisfied to listen to a pleasantly written scene in which three or four clever people say clever things, but they need to purse their lips and scowl a little and debate as to whether Shaw meant the lines to be an attack on monogamy as an institution or a plea for manual training in the public school system.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
