Royal Designers

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or designers:

    Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
    Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
    How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
    Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
    To an inordinate race?
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    The designers [of the 1930s] were populists, you see; they were trying to give the public what it wanted. What the public wanted was the future.
    William Gibson (b. 1948)
