Average Personality Number

Famous quotes containing the words average, personality and/or number:

    All the average human being asks is something he can call a home; a family that is fed and warm; and now and then a little happiness; once in a long while an extravagance.
    Mother Jones (1830–1930)

    We have no higher life that is really apart from other people. It is by imagining them that our personality is built up; to be without the power of imagining them is to be a low-grade idiot.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    While I do not suggest that humanity will ever be able to dispense with its martyrs, I cannot avoid the suspicion that with a little more thought and a little less belief their number may be substantially reduced.
    —J.B.S. (John Burdon Sanderson)
