Famous quotes containing the word innate:
“It must not be thought that the cowardly feeling of caution and uneasy self-preservation is innate in the English character. It is the consequence of a corpulence derived from wealth and of the training of all thoughts and passions for acquisitiveness.”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
