Famous quotes containing the words greatest and/or teams:
“Think of the better world we could build if men and women, if even for a little while longer, were freed from their greatest fear: the fear of death and the grave.”
—Robert D. Andrews, and Nick Grindé. Dr. Ralph Howard (Edward Van Sloan)
“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
