Famous quotes containing the words world and/or grand:

    The world does not speak. Only we do. The world can, once we have programmed ourselves with a language, cause us to hold beliefs. But it cannot propose a language for us to speak. Only other human beings can do that.
    Richard Rorty (b. 1931)

    The grand points in human nature are the same to-day they were a thousand years ago. The only variability in them is in expression, not in feature.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
