Famous quotes containing the word face:
“My formula for greatness in human beings is amor fati: that one wants to change nothing, neither forwards, nor backwards, nor in all eternity. Not merely to endure necessity, still less to hide it—all idealism is mendacity in the face of necessity—but rather to love it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“If they [Mexicans] touch the hair of the head of one of our citizens, tell him [Commodore Dallas] to batter down and destroy their town and exterminate the inhabitants from the face of the earth!”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“Coming on such an ancient human trace
Seems as expressive of the human race
As meeting someone living, face to face.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
