Stern Show

Famous quotes containing the words stern and/or show:

    The breaking waves dashed high
    On a stern and rock-bound coast,
    Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)

    All goes to show that the soul in man is not an organ, but animates and exercises all the organs; is not a function, like the power of memory, of calculation, of comparison, but uses these as hands and feet; is not a faculty, but a light, is not the intellect or the will, but the master of the intellect and the will; is the background of our being, in which they lie,—an immensity not possessed and that cannot be possessed.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
