Famous quotes containing the words community and/or profile:

    Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it.
    Marian Wright Edelman (20th century)

    Nature centres into balls,
    And her proud ephemerals,
    Fast to surface and outside,
    Scan the profile of the sphere;
    Knew they what that signified,
    A new genesis were here.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
