Famous quotes containing the word objects:

    He who observes etiquette but objects to lying is like someone who dresses fashionably but wears no vest.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    Philosophy, certainly, is some account of truths the fragments and very insignificant parts of which man will practice in this workshop; truths infinite and in harmony with infinity, in respect to which the very objects and ends of the so-called practical philosopher will be mere propositions, like the rest.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A man is but a little thing in the midst of the objects of nature, yet, by the moral quality radiating from his countenance, he may abolish all considerations of magnitude, and in his manners equal the majesty of the world.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
