Famous quotes containing the word feature:

    The paid wealth which hundreds in the community acquire in trade, or by the incessant expansions of our population and arts, enchants the eyes of all the rest; the luck of one is the hope of thousands, and the bribe acts like the neighborhood of a gold mine to impoverish the farm, the school, the church, the house, and the very body and feature of man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Blunders are an inescapable feature of war, because choice in military affairs lies generally between the bad and the worse.
    Allan Massie (b. 1938)

    A snake, with mottles rare,
    Surveyed my chamber floor,
    In feature as the worm before,
    But ringed with power.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
