Famous quotes containing the words common and/or names:

    “The common faults of American language are an ambition of effect, a want of simplicity, and a turgid abuse of terms.”
    —James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)

    “If goodness were only a theory, it were a pity it should be lost to the world. There are a number of things, the idea of which is a clear gain to the mind. Let people, for instance, rail at friendship, genius, freedom, as long as they will—the very names of these despised qualities are better than anything else that could be substituted for them, and embalm even the most envenomed satire against them.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
