World Sector Leaders

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or leaders:

“I did not live until this time
Crown’d my felicity,
When I could say without a crime,
I am not thine, but Thee.

This carcase breath’d, and walkt, and slept,
So that the World believ’d
There was a soul the motions kept;
But they were all deceiv’d.”
—Katherine Philips (1631–1664)

“For aesthetics is the mother of ethics.... Were we to choose our leaders on the basis of their reading experience and not their political programs, there would be much less grief on earth. I believe—not empirically, alas, but only theoretically—that for someone who has read a lot of Dickens to shoot his like in the name of an idea is harder than for someone who has read no Dickens.”
—Joseph Brodsky (b. 1940)
