Famous quotes containing the words meaning of and/or meaning:

    Weapons are like money; no one knows the meaning of enough.
    Martin Amis (b. 1949)

    A name with meaning could bring up a child,
    Taking the child out of the parents’ hands.
    Better a meaningless name, I should say,
    As leaving more to nature and happy chance.
    Name children some names and see what you do.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
