Famous quotes containing the word application:

    “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely a loose application of the word.

    “Preaching is the expression of the moral sentiment in application to the duties of life.”
