Original Man

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or man:

    Painting myself for others, I have painted my inward self with colors clearer than my original ones. I have no more made my book than my book has made me—a book consubstantial with its author, concerned with my own self, an integral part of my life; not concerned with some third-hand, extraneous purpose, like all other books.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Everything that man esteems
    Endures a moment or a day.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
