Famous quotes containing the words special and/or honors:

    I don’t like to be idle; in fact, I often feel somewhat guilty unless there is some purpose to what I am doing. But spending a few hours—or a few days—in the woods, swamps or alongside a stream has never seemed to me a waste of time.... I derive special benefit from a period of solitude.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
