Famous quotes containing the words forms of, forms, trust and/or persons:

    The sun, that brave man,
    Comes through boughs that lie in wait,
    That brave man.
    Green and gloomy eyes
    In dark forms of the grass
    Run away.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    No rent-roll nor army-list can dignify skulking and dissimulation: and the first point of courtesy must always be truth, as really all the forms of good-breeding point that way.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    And consequently when wee Believe that the Scriptures are the word of God, having no immediate revelation from God himself, our Belief, Faith, and Trust is in the Church; whose words we take, and acquiesce therein.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    As to the family, I have never understood how that fits in with the other ideals—or, indeed, why it should be an ideal at all. A group of closely related persons living under one roof; it is a convenience, often a necessity, sometimes a pleasure, sometimes the reverse; but who first exalted it as admirable, an almost religious ideal?
    Rose Macaulay (1881–1958)
