Importance

Famous quotes containing the word importance:

    A man’s personal defects will commonly have with the rest of the world precisely that importance which they have to himself. If he makes light of them, so will other men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    ... women especially seem to have very little idea of the importance of business time.
    Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)

    There are of course people who are more important than others in that they have more importance in the world but this is not essential and it ceases to be. I have no sense of difference in this respect because every human being comprises the combination form.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
