Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “The philosopher is in advance of his age even in the outward form of his life. He is not fed, sheltered, clothed, warmed, like his contemporaries. How can a man be a philosopher and not maintain his vital heat by better methods than other men?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “For me, as a beginning novelist, all other living writers form a control group for whom the world is a placebo.”
    —Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)

    “The legislator should direct his attention above all to the education of youth; for the neglect of education does harm to the constitution. The citizen should be molded to suit the form of government under which he lives. For each government has a peculiar character which originally formed and which continues to preserve it. The character of democracy creates democracy, and the character of oligarchy creates oligarchy.”
    —Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
