Famous quotes containing the word ancestors:

    ““My ancestors were all famous for military genius.”
    My Lady smiled graciously. “It often runs in families,” she remarked: “just as a love for pastry does.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Rights! There are no rights whatever without corresponding duties. Look at the history of the growth of our constitution, and you will see that our ancestors never upon any occasion stated, as a ground for claiming any of their privileges, an abstract right inherent in themselves; you will nowhere in our parliamentary records find the miserable sophism of the Rights of Man.”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
