Text Quotes
We must remember how apt man is to extremes - rushing from credulity and weakness to suspicion and distrust  (Apt Quotes) Fame is a skittish jade, more fickle even than Fortune, and apt to shy, and bolt, and plunge away on very trifling causes  (Apt Quotes) Fear is not in the habit of speaking truth; when perfect sincerity is expected, perfect freedom must be allowed; nor has anyone who is apt to be angry when he hears the truth any cause to wonder that he does not hear it  (Apt Quotes) Though men are apt to flatter and exalt themselves with their great achievements, yet these are, in truth, very often owing not so much to design as chance  (Apt Quotes) The generality of men are naturally apt to be swayed by fear rather than reverence, and to refrain from evil rather because of the punishment that it brings than because of its own foulness  (Apt Quotes) No company is preferable to bad. We are more apt to catch the vices of others than virtues, as disease is far more contagious than health  (Apt Quotes) The most insignificant people are the most apt to sneer at others. They are safe from reprisals. And have no hope of rising in their own self esteem but by lowering their neighbors  (Apt Quotes) The advice of the elders to young men is very apt to be as unreal as a list of the hundred best books  (Apt Quotes) As for charity, it is a matter in which the immediate effect on the persons directly concerned, and the ultimate consequence to the general good, are apt to be at complete war with one another  (Apt Quotes) It is natural to indulge in the illusions of hope.

Why dost thou show to the apt thoughts of men the things that are not? O error, soon conceiv'd, thou never com'st unto a happy birth, but kill'st the mother that engender'd thee  (Apt Quotes) The truly great man is as apt to forgive as his power is able to revenge  (Apt Quotes) Hope is that pleasure of the mind which every one finds in himself upon the thought of a probable future enjoyment of a thing which is apt to delight him  (Apt Quotes) As there is a partiality to opinions, which is apt to mislead the understanding, so there is also a partiality to studies, which is prejudicial to knowledge  (Apt Quotes) Though she leads a retired and contemplative life, she is apt to get low spirited if left too much alone  (Apt Quotes) Since the generality of persons act from impulse, much more than from principle, men are neither so good nor so bad as we are apt to think them  (Apt Quotes) Purposeful giving is not as apt to deplete one's resources; it belongs to that natural order of giving that seems to renew itself even in the act of depletion  (Apt Quotes) There can be no greater labor than to be always dissembling; there being so many ways by which a smothered truth is apt to blaze and break out  (Apt Quotes) Any one reflecting upon the thought he has of the delight, which any present or absent thing is apt to produce in him, has the idea we call love  (Apt Quotes) Love that has nothing but beauty to keep it in good health is short lived, and apt to have ague fits  (Apt Quotes) Suspicion is far more apt to be wrong than right; oftener unjust than just. It is no friend to virtue, and always an enemy to happiness  (Apt Quotes) I don’t dream songs. I’m more apt to write dreams down and then to be able to interpret them into a song. I also tend to get up and write prose in the morning from which will come songs  (Apt Quotes) The processes of teaching the child that everything cannot be as he wills it are apt to be painful both to him and to his teacher  (Apt Quotes) Till people find themselves greatly abused and oppressed by their governors, they are not apt to complain; and whenever they do, in fact, find themselves thus abused and oppressed, they must be stupid not to complain  (Apt Quotes)
