Masses

Famous quotes containing the word masses:

    That’s how the Germans are.... The aristocrats at the top hard as glass, cold as ice, servants of the King, the working masses willing, pliable, sentimental, susceptible to brutality, the middle class educated and cowardly to the point of servility.
    Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    The masses of the sea
    The masses of the sea under
    The masses of the infant-bearing sea
    Erupt, fountain, and enter to utter for ever
    Glory glory glory
    The sundering ultimate kingdom of genesis’ thunder.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    The general interest of the masses might take the place of the insight of genius if it were allowed freedom of action.
    Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
