Famous quotes containing the words dates and/or rank:
“Nothing so dates a man as to decry the younger generation.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
“A man is the prisoner of his power. A topical memory makes him an almanac; a talent for debate, disputant; skill to get money makes him a miser, that is, a beggar. Culture reduces these inflammations by invoking the aid of other powers against the dominant talent, and by appealing to the rank of powers. It watches success.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
