Famous quotes containing the word influence:

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Women stand related to beautiful nature around us, and the enamoured youth mixes their form with moon and stars, with woods and waters, and the pomp of summer.

They refine and clear his mind: teach him to put a pleasing method into what is dry and difficult.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“What do women want with votes, when they hold the sceptre of influence with which they can control even votes, if they wield it aright?”
