Maker

Famous quotes containing the word maker:

    A cry of bitter dead men who will never

    A maker of idols is never an idolater.
    Chinese proverb.

    Has the art of politics no apparent utility? Does it appear to be unqualifiedly ratty, raffish, sordid, obscene, and low down, and its salient virtuosi a gang of unmitigated scoundrels? Then let us not forget its high capacity to soothe and tickle the midriff, its incomparable services as a maker of entertainment.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
