Famous quotes containing the words profile and/or relative:
“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)
“It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes.”
