Famous quotes containing the words secret agent, secret, agent and/or man:

    Euphemisms are not, as many young people think, useless verbiage for that which can and should be said bluntly; they are like secret agents on a delicate mission, they must airily pass by a stinking mess with barely so much as a nod of the head, make their point of constructive criticism and continue on in calm forbearance. Euphemisms are unpleasant truths wearing diplomatic cologne.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    I took him for the plainest harmless creature
    That breathed upon the earth a Christian;
    Made him my book, wherein my soul recorded
    The history of all her secret thoughts.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ... in doing our psychology, we want to attribute mental states fully opaquely because it’s the fully opaque reading which tells us what the agent has in mind, and it’s what the agent has in mind that causes his behavior.
    Jerry Alan Fodor (b. 1935)

    One man may be more cunning than another, but no one can be more cunning than all the world.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
