Famous quotes containing the words unified and/or alphabet:
“The man who knows governments most completely is he who troubles himself least about a definition which shall give their essence.

—William James (18421910)
“I wonder, Mr. Bone man, what youre thinking
of your fury now, gone sour as a sinking whale,
crawling up the alphabet on her own bones.”
