Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, japanese, bicycle and/or brands:

    “A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “All is possible,
    Who so list believe;
    Trust therefore first, and after preve,
    As men wed ladies by license and leave,
    All is possible.”
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    “The Japanese have perfected good manners and made them indistinguishable from rudeness.”
    —Paul Theroux (b. 1941)

    “Newspapers are unable, seemingly, to discriminate between a bicycle accident and the collapse of civilisation.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “On the other side, the conservative party, composed of the most moderate, able, and cultivated part of the population, is timid, and merely defensive of property. It vindicates no right, it aspires to no real good, it brands no crime, it proposes no generous policy, it does not build, nor write, nor cherish the arts, nor foster religion, nor establish schools, nor encourage science, nor emancipate the slave, nor befriend the poor, or the Indian, or the immigrant.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
