Noble Person

Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or person:

    Death closes all; but something ere the end,
    Some work of noble note, may yet be done,
    Not unbecoming men that strove with Gods.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    What a person is begins to betray itself when his talent weakens—when he stops showing what he can do. Talent, too, is ornamentation, and ornamentation, too, is a hiding place.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
