Famous quotes containing the words single and/or individual:
“With the single exception of Homer, there is no eminent writer, not even Sir Walter Scott, whom I can despise so entirely as I despise Shakespear when I measure my mind against his.... But I am bound to add that I pity the man who cannot enjoy Shakespear. He has outlasted thousands of abler thinkers, and will outlast a thousand more.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“I should like [people] to like the purely individual thing in themselves, which makes them act in singleness. and They only like to do the collective thing.”
