Extra Ecclesiam Nulla

Famous quotes containing the words extra and/or nulla:

    Three early risings make an extra day.
    Chinese proverb.

    The vulgar look upon a man, who is reckoned a fine speaker, as a phenomenon, a supernatural being, and endowed with some peculiar gift of Heaven; they stare at him, if he walks in the park, and cry, that is he. You will, I am sure, view him in a juster light, and nulla formidine. You will consider him only as a man of good sense, who adorns common thoughts with the graces of elocution, and the elegancy of style. The miracle will then cease.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
