Famous quotes containing the words ten, outstanding, young and/or persons:

    From Nature’s chain whatever link you strike,
    Tenth or ten thousandth, breaks the chain alike.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Both Socrates and Jesus were outstanding teachers; both of them urged and practiced great simplicity of life; both were regarded as traitors to the religion of their community; neither of them wrote anything; both of them were executed; and both have become the subject of traditions that are difficult or impossible to harmonize.
    Jaroslav Pelikan (b. 1932)

    A woman would rather visit her own grave than the place where she has been young and beautiful after she is aged and ugly.
    Corra May Harris (1869–1935)

    For my own part, I commonly attend more to nature than to man, but any affecting human event may blind our eyes to natural objects. I was so absorbed in him as to be surprised whenever I detected the routine of the natural world surviving still, or met persons going about their affairs indifferent.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
