Famous quotes containing the word influence:

    “The Spirit of Place [does not] exert its full influence upon a newcomer until the old inhabitant is dead or absorbed. So America.... The moment the last nuclei of Red [Indian] life break up in America, then the white men will have to reckon with the full force of the demon of the continent.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “If I had influence with the good fairy who is supposed to preside over the christening of all children, I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructible that it would last throughout life.”
    —Rachel Carson (20th century)

    “It behooves every man to see that his influence is on the side of justice, and let the courts make their own characters.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
