Famous quotes containing the word degree:

    It is true that genius takes its rise out of the mountains of rectitude; that all beauty and power which men covet are somehow born out of that Alpine district; that any extraordinary degree of beauty in man or woman involves a moral charm.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I’ve always credited the private detective with a high degree of omniscience. Or is that only true in rental fiction?
    John Paxton (1911–1985)

    A certain degree of ceremony is a necessary outwork of manners, as well as of religion; it keeps the forward and petulant at a proper distance, and is a very small restraint to the sensible and to the well-bred part of the world.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
