Famous quotes containing the words prior and/or distribution:
“They never taste who always drink;
They always talk who never think.”

“In this distribution of functions, the scholar is the delegated intellect. In the right state, he is, Man Thinking. In the degenerate state, when the victim of society, he tends to become a mere thinker, or, still worse, the parrot of other men’s thinking.”
