Ali Mohsen - Individual

Famous quotes containing the word individual:

“I should like [people] to like the purely individual thing in themselves, which makes them act in singleness. and They only like to do the collective thing.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“There is one mind common to all individual men. Every man is an inlet to the same and to all of the same.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“A State, in idea, is the opposite of a Church. A State regards classes, and not individuals; and it estimates classes, not by internal merit, but external accidents, as property, birth, etc. But a church does the reverse of this, and disregards all external accidents, and looks at men as individual persons, allowing no gradations of ranks, but such as greater or less wisdom, learning, and holiness ought to confer. A Church is, therefore, in idea, the only pure democracy.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
