Appointed Professor

Famous quotes containing the words appointed and/or professor:

“If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.”
—Bible: Hebrew Job 14:14.

“This unlettered man’s speaking and writing are standard English. Some words and phrases deemed vulgarisms and Americanisms before, he has made standard American; such as “It will pay.” It suggests that the one great rule of composition—and if I were a professor of rhetoric I should insist on this—is, to speak the truth. This first, this second, this third; pebbles in your mouth or not. This demands earnestness and manhood chiefly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
