Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or person:
“Man know thy powers, and not observe thy size,
The noble power in piercing reason lies,
And reason conquers all, and rules the skies.”
—Marcus Manilius (10 B.C.–A.D. 30)
“A new talker will often call her caregiver “mommy,” which makes parents worry that the child is confused about who is who. She isn’t. This is a case of limited vocabulary rather than mixed-up identities. When a child has only one word for the female person who takes care of her, calling both of them “mommy” is understandable.”
—Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
