Famous quotes containing the word quotes:

    “Man is timid and apologetic; he is no longer upright; he dares not say “I think,” “I am,” but quotes some saint or sage.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Young people of high school age can actually feel themselves changing. Progress is almost tangible. It’s exciting. It stimulates more progress. Nevertheless, growth is not constant and smooth. Erik Erikson quotes an aphorism to describe the formless forming of it. “I ain’t what I ought to be. I ain’t what I’m going to be, but I’m not what I was.””
    —Stella Chess (20th century)

    “I quote another man’s saying; unluckily, that other withdraws himself in the same way, and quotes me.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
