Famous quotes containing the words person and/or survive:
“Intellectual life is international. Only a period of discouragement, an age that has given up on itself, that wants to “preserve,” that has been driven onto the defensive, can be intellectually nationalist. Such a period is essentially “conservative.” A person who has progress in his heart is international.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“The art of letters will come to an end before A.D. 2000.... I shall survive as a curiosity.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
