Famous quotes containing the words rest and/or masses:
“Those that have had great passions esteem themselves for the rest of their lives fortunate—and unfortunate—in being cured of them.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Leave this hypocritical prating about the masses. Masses are rude, lame, unmade, pernicious in their demands and influence, and need not to be flattered, but to be schooled. I wish not to concede anything to them, but to tame, drill, divide, and break them up, and draw individuals out of them.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
