Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or times:

    “Any historian of the literature of the modern age will take virtually for granted the adversary intention, the actually subversive intention, that characterizes modern writing—he will perceive its clear purpose of detaching the reader from the habits of thought and feeling that the larger culture imposes, of giving him a ground and a vantage point from which to judge and condemn, and perhaps revise, the culture that produces him.”
    —Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)

    “Times of heroism are generally times of terror, but the day never shines in which this element may not work.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
