Famous quotes containing the word ancestors:

    “In different hours, a man represents each of several of his ancestors, as if there were seven or eight of us rolled up in each man’s skin,—seven or eight ancestors at least, and they constitute the variety of notes for that new piece of music which his life is.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
