Convey

Famous quotes containing the word convey:

    We are thus assisted by natural objects in the expression of particular meanings. But how great a language to convey such pepper-corn informations!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Proverbs, words, and grammar inflections convey the public sense with more purity and precision, than the wisest individual.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Politics is not an end, but a means. It is not a product, but a process. It is the art of government. Like other values it has its counterfeits. So much emphasis has been placed upon the false that the significance of the true has been obscured and politics has come to convey the meaning of crafty and cunning selfishness, instead of candid and sincere service.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
