Famous quotes containing the word names:

    I do not see why, since America and her autumn woods have been discovered, our leaves should not compete with the precious stones in giving names to colors; and, indeed, I believe that in course of time the names of some of our trees and shrubs, as well as flowers, will get into our popular chromatic nomenclature.

We have nothing to give them here. They have loved reading.”
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
