Famous quotes containing the words distribution and/or region:

    In this distribution of functions, the scholar is the delegated intellect. In the right state, he is, Man Thinking. In the degenerate state, when the victim of society, he tends to become a mere thinker, or, still worse, the parrot of other men’s thinking.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    the Mind of Man—
    My haunt, and the main region of my song.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
