Famous quotes containing the word faculty:

    “Truth is his inspirer, and earnestness the polisher of his sentences. He could afford to lose his Sharp’s rifles, while he retained his faculty of speech,—a Sharp’s rifle of infinitely surer and longer range.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Since everything in nature answers to a moral power, if any phenomenon remains brute and dark, it is that the corresponding faculty in the observer is not yet active.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “A slavish bondage to parents cramps every faculty of the mind.”
    —Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
