Person Singular

Famous quotes containing the words person and/or singular:

    If one considers how much reason every person has for anxiety and timid self-concealment, and how three-quarters of his energy and goodwill can be paralyzed and made unfruitful by it, one has to be very grateful to fashion, insofar as it sets that three-quarters free and communicates self-confidence and mutual cheerful agreeableness to those who know they are subject to its law.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    There is in my nature, methinks, a singular yearning toward all wildness.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
