Famous quotes containing the words form of and/or form:

    If any doubt has arisen as to me, my country [Virginia] will have my political creed in the form of a “Declaration &c.” which I was lately directed to draw. This will give decisive proof that my own sentiment concurred with the vote they instructed us to give.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    The place became full of a watchful intentness now; for when other things sank brooding to sleep the heath appeared slowly to awake and listen.

    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
