Noble Baronets - Noble Baronets, of West Denton Hall (1921)

Famous quotes containing the words noble, west and/or hall:

“Heaven grant him now some noble nook,
For, rest his soul! he’d rather be
Genteelly damn’d beside a Duke,
Than sav’d in vulgar company.”
—Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

“Where there’s more of singing and less of sighing,
Where there’s more of giving and less of buying,
And a man makes friends without half trying
That’s where the West begins.”
—Arthur Chapman (1873–1935)

“When Western people train the mind, the focus is generally on the left hemisphere of the cortex, which is the portion of the brain that is concerned with words and numbers. We enhance the logical, bounded, linear functions of the mind. In the East, exercises of this sort are for the purpose of getting in tune with the unconscious—to get rid of boundaries, not to create them.”
—Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)
