Famous quotes containing the words mixed and/or state:

    “When truth is nothing but the truth, it’s unnatural, it’s an abstraction that resembles nothing in the real world. In nature there are always so many other irrelevant things mixed up with the essential truth. That’s why art moves you—precisely because it’s unadulterated with all the irrelevancies of real life.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “Since the last one in a graveyard is believed to be the next one fated to die, funerals often end in a mad scramble.”
    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
