Text Quotes
If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it  (Admiration Quotes) I have to keep working, not to arrive at finish, which arouses the admiration of fools... I must seek completion only for the pleasure of being truer and more knowing  (Admiration Quotes) Jealousy is the most radical primeval and naked form of admiration in war paint, so to speak  (Admiration Quotes) It is easy to specify the individual objects of admiration in these grand scenes; but it is not possible to give an adequate idea of the higher feelings of wonder, astonishment, and devotion, which fill and elevate the mind  (Admiration Quotes) I have a lot of admiration for people who’ve been in relationships a long time, married for years  (Admiration Quotes) I have such admiration for single mothers. I simply don’t comprehend how you’d cope with that intensity, the lack of breaks, ever, on your own  (Admiration Quotes) If throughout your life you abstain from murder, theft, fornication, perjury, blasphemy, and disrespect toward your parents, church, and your king, you are conventionally held to deserve moral admiration even if you have never done a single kind, generous or useful action. This very inadequate notion of virtue is an outcome of taboo morality, and has done untold harm  (Admiration Quotes) Life and the world, or whatever we call that which we are and feel, is an astonishing thing. The mist of familiarity obscures from us the wonder of our being. We are struck with admiration at some of its transient modifications, but it is itself the great miracle  (Admiration Quotes) There are few things sweeter in this world than the guileless, hotheaded, intemperate, open admiration of a junior. Even a woman in her blindest devotion does not fall into the gait of the man she adores, tilt her bonnet to the angle at which he wears his hat, or interlard her speech with his pet oaths  (Admiration Quotes) They do not need our praise. They do not need that our admiration should sustain them. There is no immortality that is safer than theirs. We come not for their sakes but for our own, in order that we may drink at the same springs of inspiration from which they themselves drank  (Admiration Quotes) It strikes me as unfair, and even in bad taste, to select a few of them for boundless admiration, attributing superhuman powers of mind and character to them. This has been my fate, and the contrast between the popular estimate of my powers and achievements and the reality is simply grotesque  (Admiration Quotes) Whatever sympathy I feel towards religions, whatever admiration for some of their adherents, whatever historical or biological necessity I see in them, whatever metaphorical truth, I cannot accept them as credible explanations of reality; and they are incredible to me in proportion to the degree that they require my belief in positive human attributes and intervenient powers in their divinities  (Admiration Quotes) Being thus prepared for us in all ways, and made beautiful, and good for food, and for building, and for instruments of our hands, this race of plants, deserving boundless affection and admiration from us, becomes, in proportion to their obtaining it, a nearly perfect test of our being in right temper of mind and way of life; so that no one can be far wrong in either who loves trees enough, and everyone is assuredly wrong in both who does not love them, if his life has brought them in his way  (Admiration Quotes) Who can know her, and himself, and entertain much hope? Who can see and know such a creature, and not love her to distraction? She has all the softness that does not imply weakness... she is not made to be the admiration of everybody, but the happiness of one  (Admiration Quotes) By adversity are wrought the greatest works of admiration, and all the fair examples of renown, out of distress and misery are grown  (Admiration Quotes) Between a man and a woman, collaboration and admiration are more natural than competition. The woman accepts the secondary role willingly; she gives the man what he needs in the way of courage and moral support  (Admiration Quotes) How useless is painting, which attracts admiration by the resemblance of things, the originals of which we do not admire!  (Admiration Quotes) How vain painting is, exciting admiration by its resemblance to things of which we do not admire the originals  (Admiration Quotes) Admiration must be kept up by the novelty that at first produce it;... There must always be the impression that more remains  (Admiration Quotes) Two things fill me with constantly increasing admiration and awe, the longer and more earnestly I reflect on them: The starry heavens without and the moral law within  (Admiration Quotes) Our admiration of a famous man lessens upon our nearer acquaintance with him; and we seldom hear of a celebrated person without a catalogue of some notorious weaknesses and infirmities  (Admiration Quotes) Rich men are resolved to be astonished at nothing. When they see a masterpiece, they must needs at one glance recognize some flaw to dispense them from admiration, a vulgar emotion  (Admiration Quotes) Admiration must be continued by that novelty which first produces it; and how much soever is given, there must always be reason to imagine that more remains  (Admiration Quotes) Admiration is a forced tribute ; to extort it from mankind, envious and ignorant as they are, they must be taken unawares  (Admiration Quotes) There is nothing to do with men but to love them; to contemplate their virtues with admiration, their faults with pity and forbearance, and their injuries with forgiveness  (Admiration Quotes) It is not the church we want, but the sacrifice; not the emotion of admiration, but the act of adoration; not the gift, but the giving  (Admiration Quotes) Mankind are so ready to bestow their admiration on the dead, because the latter do not hear it, or because it gives no pleasure to the objects of it. Even fame is the offspring of envy  (Admiration Quotes) It may be laid down as a general rule, that no woman who hath any great pretensions to admiration is ever well pleased in a company where she perceives herself to fill only the second place  (Admiration Quotes) The passion for praise, which is so very vehement in the fair sex, produces excellent effects in women of sense, who desire to be admired for that which only deserves admiration  (Admiration Quotes) Fame and admiration weigh not a feather in the scale against friendship and love, for the heart languishes all the same  (Admiration Quotes)
