“This is an age of intellectual sauces, of essence, of distillation. We have ''conclusions'' without deductions, ''abridgments of history'' and ''abridgments of science'' without leading facts. We have ''animals'' for literature, ''Cabinet'' Encyclopaedias, ''Family'' Libraries, ''Diffusion'' Societies, and heaven knows what else! What is all this for? Not to add knowledge to the learned, but to tell points to the ignorant, without giving them the trouble to acquire the links. Oh! it is sad work. And the result will be injurious to all classes.” | Benjamin Haydon quotes (English historical painter and writer, 1786-1846)

Related Quotations by keyword: sauces “Centuries ago, sailors on long voyages used to leave a pair of pigs on every deserted island. Or they'd leave a pair of goats. Either way, on any future visit, the island would be a source of meat. These islands, they were pristine. These were home to breeds of birds with no natural predators. Breeds of birds that lived nowhere else on earth. The plants there, without enemies they evolved without thorns or poisons. Without predators and enemies, these islands, they were paradise. The sailors, the next time they visited these islands, the only things still there would be herds of goats or pigs. .... Does this remind you of anything? Maybe the ol' Adam and Eve story? .... You ever wonder when God's coming back with a lot of barbecue sauce?” | cle27 Chuck Palahniuk quotes (American freelance Journalist, Satirist and Novelist. b.1961)
