Individual Account

Famous quotes containing the words individual and/or account:

“Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility. Nothing adds such dignity to character as the recognition of one’s self-sovereignty; the right to an equal place, everywhere conceded—a place earned by personal merit, not an artificial attainment by inheritance, wealth, family and position.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

“How shall we account for our pursuits, if they are original? We get the language with which to describe our various lives out of a common mint.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
