Fourth Rank

Famous quotes containing the words fourth and/or rank:

“We are playing with fire when we skip the years of three, four, and five to hurry children into being age six.... Every child has a right to his fifth year of life, his fourth year, his third year. He has a right to live each year with joy and self-fulfillment. No one should ever claim the power to make a child mortgage his today for the sake of tomorrow.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

“The rank is but the guinea stamp—
The man’s the gowd for a’ that!”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
