Famous quotes containing the words relation to and/or relation:

    “The difference between objective and subjective extension is one of relation to a context solely.”
    —William James (1842–1910)

    “The instincts of the ant are very unimportant, considered as the ant’s; but the moment a ray of relation is seen to extend from it to man, and the little drudge is seen to be a monitor, a little body with a mighty heart, then all its habits, even that said to be recently observed, that it never sleeps, become sublime.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
