Famous quotes containing the word persons:

    I begin, then, with some remarks about ‘the meaning of a word.’ I think many persons now see all or part of what I shall say: but not all do, and there is a tendency to forget, or to get it slightly wrong. In so far as I am merely flogging the converted, I apologize to them.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)

    Swans sing before they die—’twere no bad thing
    Should certain persons die before they sing.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
