Famous quotes containing the word feature:
“The proclamation and repetition of first principles is a constant feature of life in our democracy. Active adherence to these principles, however, has always been considered un-American.

—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“With men he can be rational and unaffected, but when he has ladies to please, every feature works.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
“Knavery seems to be so much a the striking feature of its inhabitants that it may not in the end be an evil that they will become aliens to this kingdom.”
—George III (1738–1820)
