Noble Person

Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or person:

“I’ll sing you a new ballad, and I’ll warrant it first-rate,
Of the days of that old gentleman who had that old estate;
When they spent the public money at a bountiful old rate
On ev’ry mistress, pimp, and scamp, at ev’ry noble gate,
In the fine old English Tory times;”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1890)

“The first duty of a conscientious person is to have his or her conscience absolutely under his or her own control.”
