Famous quotes containing the words thread and/or form:

    “I taught school in the early days of my manhood and I think I know something about mothers. There is a thread of aspiration that runs strong in them. It is the fiber that has formed the most unselfish creatures who inhabit this earth. They want three things only; for their children to be fed, to be healthy, and to make the most of themselves.”
    —Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    “Human development is a form of chronological unfairness, since late-comers are able to profit by the labors of their predecessors without paying the same price.”
    —Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
