Object Point

Famous quotes containing the words object and/or point:

    The great object of Education should be commensurate with the object of life. It should be a moral one; to teach self-trust: to inspire the youthful man with an interest in himself; with a curiosity touching his own nature; to acquaint him with the resources of his mind, and to teach him that there is all his strength, and to inflame him with a piety towards the Grand Mind in which he lives. Thus would education conspire with the Divine Providence.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We fancy men are individuals; so are pumpkins; but every pumpkin in the field, goes through every point of pumpkin history.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
