Famous quotes containing the word subordinate:
“When he has seen, that it is not his, nor any man’s, but it is the soul which made the world, and that it is all accessible to him, he will know that he, as its minister, may rightfully hold all things subordinate and answerable to it.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
