Famous quotes containing the words bit and/or depth:

    “The great rule: If the little bit you have is nothing special in itself, at least find a way of saying it that is a little bit special.”
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    “To whatsoever upright mind, to whatsoever beating heart I speak, to you it is committed to educate men. By simple living, by an illimitable soul, you inspire, you correct, you instruct, you raise, you embellish all. By your own act you teach the beholder how to do the practicable. According to the depth from which you draw your life, such is the depth not only of your strenuous effort, but of your manners and presence.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
