Barbarian Quotations
As a result, I've been portrayed as a cynical barbarian preying on the very clients I was charged to defend. Jack Abramoff The true barbarian is he who thinks everything barbarous but his own tastes and prejudices. William Hazlitt The middle class, that prisoner of the barbarian 20th century. Sinclair Lewis If there were a clear prospect that such evils were part of a barbarian past, then at least we might find a small crumb of comfort. No such prospect exists: no scientific analysis can even remotely answer or account for past and present horrors of human behaviour. Simon Conway Morris The true law of the race is progress and development. Whenever civilization pauses in the march of conquest, it is overthrown by the barbarian. William Gilmore Simms The goal, I submit, is obvious: subjugating the world (which is barbarian, dangerous, envious and ungrateful) to US power for the sake of America's interests. Breyten Breytenbach If you go back to the Conan the Barbarian series, I really liked that. Andre Braugher Anyone can be a barbarian; it requires a terrible effort to remain a civilized man. Leonard Woolf |
