Famous quotes containing the words writers and/or scholars:

    “It seems not more reasonable to leave the right of printing unrestrained, because writers may be afterwards censured, than it would be to sleep with doors unbolted, because by our laws we can hang a thief.”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    The salients of colonial policy.
    What is that to the white child hacked in bed?
    To savages, expendable as Jews?”
