Famous quotes containing the word names:

    “No, no! I don’t, I don’t want to know your name. You don’t have a name, and I don’t have a name, either. No names here. Not one name.”

    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Holding myself the humblest of all whose names were before the convention, I feel in especial need of the assistance of all.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
