Famous quotes containing the words main and/or line:
“I am a Communist, a convinced Communist! For some that may be a fantasy. But to me it is my main goal.”
—Mikhail Gorbachev (b. 1931)
“What we are, that only can we see. All that Adam had, all that Caesar could, you have and can do. Adam called his house, heaven and earth; Caesar called his house, Rome; you perhaps call yours, a cobbler’s trade; a hundred acres of ploughed land; or a scholar’s garret. Yet line for line and point for point, your dominion is as great as theirs, though without fine names. Build, therefore, your own world.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
