Famous quotes containing the words national, historic and/or district:

    “The cultivation of one set of faculties tends to the disuse of others. The loss of one faculty sharpens others; the blind are sensitive in touch. Has not the extreme cultivation of the commercial faculty permitted others as essential to national life, to be blighted by disease?”
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    “It is, all in all, a historic error to believe that the master makes the school; the students make it!”
    —Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    “Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
