Famous quotes containing the words primary, individuals and/or involved:

    “It was the feeling of a passenger on an ocean steamer whose mind will not give him rest until he has been in the engine-room and talked with the engineer. She wanted to see with her own eyes the action of primary forces; to touch with her own eyes the action of primary forces; to touch with her own hand the massive machinery of society; to measure with her own mind the capacity of the motive power. She was bent upon getting to the heart of the great American mystery of democracy and government.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “If the individuals who compose the purest circles of aristocracy in Europe, the guarded blood of centuries, should pass in review, in such manner as that we could, at leisure, and critically inspect their behavior, we might find no gentleman, and no lady; for, although excellent specimens of courtesy and high-breeding would gratify us in the assemblage, in the particulars, we should detect offence. Because, elegance comes of no breeding, but of birth.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Tommy: You’re gonna have trouble with that one.
    Milo: Oh no I’m not. He’s just not housebroken yet, that’s all.
    Tommy: When are you going to stop getting yourself involved with young itinerant artists? It never works. If they’re no good, you’re ashamed. And if they are, they get independent.”
    —Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
