Spinoff of the "If Miles wrote a Book" thread and a Tiger Rant thread from earlier:

Who can cite these quotes correctly? Ralph Waldo Emerson or Leslie Edwin Miles?

"No change of circumstances can repair a defect of character."
Emerson or Miles?


"Victory was big. There was no lack of reward"
Emerson or Miles?


"Our chief want is someone who will inspire us to be what we know we could be."

Emerson or Miles?


"History may be the least significant statistic that predicts any outcome."
Emerson or Miles?


"Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you."
Emerson or Miles?


"It will be missed most, after it's over."
Emerson or Miles?

Wrong. Tiger Voodoo got it correct.

Emerson
Miles
Emerson
Miles
Emerson
Miles

I didn't use this one, "There is a respect for Mississippi State that has nothing to do with some of the teams that they've already played", but it's a Emerson quote too!

To be fair, I only knew #3 because of the thread on the rant. I would have totally guessed that was Miles.

I had already made it my new sig
