Famous quotes containing the words the great and/or courses:
“Heroism works in contradiction to the voice of mankind, and in contradiction, for a time, to the voice of the great and the good.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“However, our fates at least are social. Our courses do not diverge; but as the web of destiny is woven it is fulled, and we are cast more and more into the centre. Men naturally, though feebly, seek this alliance, and their actions faintly foretell it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
