Almost everything that distinguishes the modern world from earlier centuries is attributable to science, which achieved its most spectacular triumphs in the seventeenth century.
Bertrand Russell
Ardor, n. The quality that distinguishes love without knowledge.
Ambrose Bierce
Clothes and jewellery should be startling, individual. When you see a woman in my clothes, you want to know more about them. To me, that is what distinguishes good designers from bad designers.
Alexander McQueen
Data is what distinguishes the dilettante from the artist.
George V. Higgins
Given that we glimpse what distinguishes man from the beast, is there anything that distinguishes woman from man?
W. L. George
I finally know what distinguishes man from the other beasts: financial worries.
Jules Renard
I know at last what distinguishes man from animals; financial worries.
Romain Rolland
I think that's what distinguishes Schmidt, really. In the movies now, so much of what is appealing to an audience is the dramatic or has to do with science fiction, and Schmidt is simply human. There's no melodrama; there's no device, It's just about a human being.
Jack Nicholson

Max Born

Armstrong Williams
Partisans fight on familiar territory with professed political objectives to conquer power. This is what distinguishes them from terrorists.

Thomas Carlyle
The ability to make love frivolously is the chief characteristic which distinguishes human beings from beasts.
Heywood Broun
The Church's note must be a supernatural note which distinguishes incarnation from immanence, redemption from evolution, the Kingdom of God from mere spiritual process.
Arthur Middleton
The desire to take medicine is perhaps the greatest feature which distinguishes man from animals.
William Osler
The main peculiarity which distinguishes man from other animals is the means of his support-the power which he possesses of very greatly increasing these means.
Thomas Malthus
The New Testament evinces its universal design in its very, style, which alone distinguishes it from all the literary productions of earlier and later times.
Philip Schaff
The refusal to rest content, the willingness to risk excess on behalf of one's obsessions, is what distinguishes artists from entertainers, and what makes some artists adventurers on behalf of us all.
John Updike
