Common Pathway

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or pathway:

    “Words like “freedom,” “justice,” “democracy” are not common concepts; on the contrary, they are rare. People are not born knowing what these are. It takes enormous and, above all, individual effort to arrive at the respect for other people that these words imply.”
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    “Socrates drinking the hemlock,
    And Jesus on the rood;
    And millions who, humble and nameless,
    The straight, hard pathway plod—
    Some call it Consecration,
    And others call it God.”
    —William Herbet Carruth (1859–1929)
