Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “People resent articulacy, as if articulacy were a form of vice.”
    —Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)

    “... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “When the delicious beauty of lineaments loses its power, it is because a more delicious beauty has appeared; that an interior and durable form has been disclosed.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
