Relative Position

Famous quotes containing the words relative and/or position:

    It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Men were only made into “men” with great difficulty even in primitive society: the male is not naturally “a man” any more than the woman. He has to be propped up into that position with some ingenuity, and is always likely to collapse.
    Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
