Subjects

Famous quotes containing the word subjects:

“Our family talked a lot at table, and only two subjects were taboo: politics and personal troubles. The first was sternly avoided because Father ran a nonpartisan daily in a small town, with some success, and did not wish to express his own opinions in public, even when in private.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)

“It is hard to be finite upon an infinite subject, and all subjects are infinite.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“Some subjects come up suddenly in our speech and cannot be silenced.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
