Man Walking

Famous quotes containing the words man and/or walking:

    I reside at Table Mountain, and my name is Truthful James;
    I am not up to small deceit, or any sinful games;
    And I’ll tell in simple language what I know about the row
    That broke up our society upon the Stanislow.
    But first I would remark, that it is not a proper plan
    For any scientific man to whale his fellow-man,
    Bret Harte (1836–1902)

    Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes—our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking around.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
