Famous quotes containing the words succession and/or certificate:

    Man approaches the unattainable truth through a succession of errors.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    God gave the righteous man a certificate entitling him to food and raiment, but the unrighteous man found a facsimile of the same in God’s coffers, and appropriated it, and obtained food and raiment like the former. It is one of the most extensive systems of counterfeiting that the world has seen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
