Famous quotes containing the words common and/or names:

    “The common notions that we find in credit around us and infused into our souls by our fathers’ seed, these seem to be the universal and natural ones. Whence it comes to pass that what is off the hinges of custom, people believe to be off the hinges of reason.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “Men have sometimes exchanged names with their friends, as if they would signify that in their friend each loved his own soul.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
