Local Chapter Founded

Famous quotes containing the words local, chapter and/or founded:

“There is the falsely mystical view of art that assumes a kind of supernatural inspiration, a possession by universal forces unrelated to questions of power and privilege or the artist’s relation to bread and blood. In this view, the channel of art can only become clogged and misdirected by the artist’s concern with merely temporary and local disturbances. The song is higher than the struggle.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

“When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

“All government—indeed every human benefit and enjoyment, every virtue and every prudent act—is founded on compromise and barter.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
