Famous quotes containing the words prison and/or maze:
“Social questions are too sectional, too topical, too temporal to move a man to the mighty effort which is needed to produce great poetry. Prison reform may nerve Charles Reade to produce an effective and businesslike prose melodrama; but it could never produce Hamlet, Faust, or Peer Gynt.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Society bristles with enigmas which look hard to solve. It is a perfect maze of intrigue.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
