Famous quotes containing the words disc, region and/or codes:

    “Soundless as dots—on a Disc of Snow—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “He went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.”
    —Bible: New Testament, Luke 3:3.

    “... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
