Famous quotes containing the word descendants:

    “Not only does democracy make every man forget his ancestors, but also clouds their view of their descendants and isolates them from their contemporaries. Each man is for ever thrown back on himself alone, and there is danger that he may be shut up in the solitude of his own heart.”
    —Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    “The descendants of Holy Roman Empire monarchies became feeble-minded in the twentieth century, and after World War I had been done in by the democracies; some were kept on to entertain the tourists, like the one they have in England.”
    —Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    “Your descendants shall gather your fruits.”
    —Virgil [Publius Vergilius Maro] (70–19 B.C.)
