Famous quotes containing the word objects:

    A man is but a little thing in the midst of the objects of nature, yet, by the moral quality radiating from his countenance, he may abolish all considerations of magnitude, and in his manners equal the majesty of the world.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
