Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “I had very good dentures once. Some magnificent gold work. It’s the only form of jewelry a man can wear that women fully appreciate.”
    —Graham Greene (1904–1991)

    “Human development is a form of chronological unfairness, since late-comers are able to profit by the labors of their predecessors without paying the same price.”
    —Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

    “Freedom is the essence of this faith. It has for its object simply to make men good and wise. Its institutions then should be as flexible as the wants of men. That form out of which the life and suitableness have departed should be as worthless in its eyes as the dead leaves that are falling around us.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
