Famous quotes containing the words spine, brain and/or institute:

    Much of a man’s character will be found betokened in his backbone. I would rather feel your spine than your skull, whoever you are. A thin joist of a spine never yet upheld a full and noble soul.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    When our brain feels too weak to deal with our opponent’s objections, our heart answers by casting suspicion on their underlying motives.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Whenever any form of government shall become destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new government, laying it’s foundation on such principles & organising it’s powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety & happiness.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
