Famous quotes containing the words men and/or nursing:
“But as some silly young men returning from France affect a broken English, to be thought perfect in the French language; so his Lordship, I think, to seem a perfect understander of the unintelligible language of the Schoolmen, pretends an ignorance of his mother-tongue. He talks here of command and counsel as if he were no Englishman, nor knew any difference between their significations.”
—Thomas Hobbes (15791688)
“There is a certain amount of purpose, acquiescence, and satisfaction in nursing ones melancholy.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
