Famous quotes containing the words members of, members and/or fide:

    “The members of a body-politic call it “the state” when it is passive, “the sovereign” when it is active, and a “power” when they compare it with others of its kind. Collectively they use the title “people,” and they refer to one another individually as “citizens” when speaking of their participation in the authority of the sovereign, and as “subjects” when speaking of their subordination to the laws of the state.”
    —Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)

    “[T]here is no breaking out of the intentional vocabulary by explaining its members in other terms.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    “Don’t learn to do, but learn in doing. Let your falls not be on a prepared ground, but let them be bona fide falls in the rough and tumble of the world.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
