Famous quotes containing the word measure:

    Nobody is glad in the gladness of another, and our system is one of war, of an injurious superiority. Every child of the Saxon race is educated to wish to be first. It is our system; and a man comes to measure his greatness by the regrets, envies, and hatreds of his competitors.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We say that every man is entitled to be valued by his best moment. We measure our friends so. We know, they have intervals of folly, whereof we take no heed, but wait the reappearings of the genius, which are sure and beautiful.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The soul is no longer honored as it once was, but it still keeps appetite from being the measure of all things.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
