Absent Person

Famous quotes containing the words absent and/or person:

“I am absent altogether too much to be a suitable instructor for a law-student. When a man has reached the age that Mr. Widner has, and has already been doing for himself, my judgment is, that he reads the books for himself without an instructor. That is precisely the way I came to the law.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

“The work of art assumes the existence of the perfect spectator, and is indifferent to the fact that no such person exists.”
