Famous quotes containing the word names:

    Nor youth, nor strength, nor wisdom spring again,
    Nor habitations long their names retain,
    But in oblivion to the final day remain.
    Anne Bradstreet (c. 1612–1672)

    It is a sad truth, but we have lost the faculty of giving lovely names to things. Names are everything. I never quarrel with actions. My one quarrel is with words.... The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one. It is the only thing he is fit for.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Far from being antecedent principles that animate the process, law, language, truth are but abstract names for its results.
    William James (1842–1910)
