To be brave in misfortune is to be worthy of manhood; to be wise in misfortune is to conquer fate (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
The gayety of life, like the beauty and the moral worth of life, is a saving grace, which to ignore is folly, and to destroy is crime. There is no more than we need; there is barely enough to go round (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
A man who listens because he has nothing to say can hardly be a source of inspiration. The only listening that counts is that of the talker who alternately absorbs and expresses ideas (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
What strange impulse is it which induces otherwise truthful people to say they like music when they do not, and thus expose themselves to hours of boredom? (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
There is an optimism which nobly anticipates the eventual triumph of great moral laws, and there is an optimism which cheerfully tolerates unworthiness (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
We may fail of our happiness, strive we ever so bravely; but we are less likely to fail if we measure with judgement our chances and our capabilities (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
Life is so full of miseries, minor and major; they press so close upon us at every step of the way, that it is hardly worthwhile to call one another’s attention to their presence (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
A villain must be a thing of power, handled with delicacy and grace. He must be wicked enough to excite our aversion, strong enough to arouse our fear, human enough to awaken some transient gleam of sympathy. We must triumph in his downfall, yet not barbarously nor with contempt, and the close of his career must be in harmony with all its previous development (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
The pessimist is seldom an agitating individual. His creed breeds indifference to others, and he does not trouble himself to thrust his views upon the unconvinced (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
It is impossible to withhold education from the receptive mind, as it is impossible to force it upon the unreasoning (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
A world of vested interests is not a world which welcomes the disruptive force of candor (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
Who that has plodded on to middle age would take back upon his shoulders ten of the vanished years, with their mingled pleasures and pains? Who would return to the youth he is forever pretending to regret? (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
Sensuality, too, which used to show itself course, smiling, unmasked, and unmistakable, is now serious, analytic, and so burdened with a sense of its responsibilities that it passes muster half the time as a new type of asceticism (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
Sleep sweetly in the fields of asphodel, and waken, as of old, to stretch thy languid length, and purr thy soft contentment to the skies (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
The carefully fostered theory that schoolwork can be made easy and enjoyable breaks down as soon as anything, however trivial, has to be learned (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
It takes time and trouble to persuade ourselves that the things we want to do are the things we ought to do (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
Those persons are happiest in this restless and mutable world who are in love with change, who delight in what is new simply because it differs from what is old; who rejoice in every innovation, and find a strange alert pleasure in all that is, and that has never been before (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
It is not depravity that afflicts the human race so much as a general lack of intelligence (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
It is the steady and merciless increase of occupations, the augmented speed at which we are always trying to live, the crowding of each day with more work than it can profitably hold, which has cost us, among other things, the undisturbed enjoyment of friends. Friendship takes time, and we have no time to give it (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
People fed on sugared praises cannot be expected to feel an appetite for the black broth of honest criticism (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
Too much rigidity on the part of teachers should be followed by a brisk spirit of insubordination on the part of the taught (Agnes Repplier Quotes)
