Famous quotes containing the word composition:

    “It is my PRIDE, my damn’d, native, unconquerable Pride, that plunges me into Distraction. You must know that 19-20th of my Composition is Pride. I must either live a Slave, a Servant; to have no Will of my own, no Sentiments of my own which I may freely declare as such;Mor DIE—perplexing alternative!”
    —Thomas Chatterton (1752–1770)

    “The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)

    “Those Dutchmen had hardly any imagination or fantasy, but their good taste and their scientific knowledge of composition were enormous.”
    —Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)
