Famous quotes containing the words sense and/or combination:

    “One of the signs of passing youth is the birth of a sense of fellowship with other human beings as we take our place among them.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “By the “mud-sill” theory it is assumed that labor and education are incompatible; and any practical combination of them impossible. According to that theory, a blind horse upon a tread-mill, is a perfect illustration of what a laborer should be—all the better for being blind, that he could not tread out of place, or kick understandingly.... Free labor insists on universal education.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
