Famous quotes containing the words works and/or trilling:

    “... no one who has not been an integral part of a slaveholding community, can have any idea of its abominations.... even were slavery no curse to its victims, the exercise of arbitrary power works such fearful ruin upon the hearts of slaveholders, that I should feel impelled to labor and pray for its overthrow with my last energies and latest breath.”
    —Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)

    “Probably it is impossible for humor to be ever a revolutionary weapon. Candide can do little more than generate irony.”
    —Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)
