Famous quotes containing the words spiritual and/or meaning:
“I look on trade and every mechanical craft as education also. But let me discriminate what is precious herein.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Several classical sayings that one likes to repeat had quite a different meaning from the ones later times attributed to them.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
