West Walk

Famous quotes containing the words west and/or walk:

    I cannot think that espionage can be recommended as a technique for building an impressive civilisation. It’s a lout’s game.
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    Erasmus was the light of his century; others were its strength: he lighted the way; others knew how to walk on it while he himself remained in the shadow as the source of light always does. But he who points the way into a new era is no less worthy of veneration than he who is the first to enter it; those who work invisibly have also accomplished a feat.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)
