Famous quotes containing the words times and/or world:
“Women—one half the human race at least—care fifty times more for a marriage than a ministry.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“To me this world is all one continued vision of fancy or imagination, and I feel flattered when I am told so. What is it sets Homer, Virgil and Milton in so high a rank of art? Why is Bible more entertaining and instructive than any other book? Is it not because they are addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and but mediately to the understanding or reason?”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
