Quotations for prominent

Superiority to circumstances is one of the most prominent characteristics of great men. [ Horace Mann ]

I have great hope of a wicked man, slender hope of a mean one. A wicked man may be converted and become a prominent saint. A mean man ought to be converted six or seven times, one right after the other, to give him a fair start and put him on an equality with a bold, wicked man. [ Beecher ]
