One

Famous quotes containing the word one:

    I think the most important education that we have is the education which now I am glad to say is being accepted as the proper one, and one which ought to be widely diffused, that industrial, vocational education which puts young men and women in a position from which they can by their own efforts work themselves to independence.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    It makes so little difference, at so much more
    Than seventy, where one looks, one has been there before.
    Wood-smoke rises through trees, is caught in an upper flow
    Of air and whirled away. But it has been often so.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    One by one objects are defined—
    It quickens: clarity, outline of leaf

    But now the stark dignity of
    entrance—Still, the profound change
    has come upon them: rooted, they
    grip down and begin to awaken
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
