Valued Form

Famous quotes containing the words valued and/or form:

    “Men are apt to mistake, or at least to seem to mistake, their own talents, in hopes, perhaps, of misleading others to allow them that which they are conscious they do not possess. Thus lord Hardwicke valued himself more upon being a great minister of state, which he certainly was not, than upon being a great magistrate, which he certainly was.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Be sure that it is not you that is mortal, but only your body. For that man whom your outward form reveals is not yourself; the spirit is the true self, not that physical figure which can be pointed out by your finger.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
