The Pivot Of Civilization Quotes
Showing 1-1 of 1
“We want statesmen and poets and musicians and
philosophers and strong men and delicate men and brave men. The

eliminate many of the great geniuses of the world who were not only
``Bohemian,'' but actually and pathologically abnormal--men like
Rousseau, Dostoevsky, Chopin, Poe, Schumann, Nietzsche, Comte,
Guy de Maupassant”
