Forbid Quotes

There are many objects of desire, and therefore many desires. Some are born with us, hunger, yearning, and pride of place, and some are the foolishness of the world, such as the desire to eat off silver plates. Desire is a wild horse to be tamed. Virtue is a habit long continued. The taming of desire is like the training of the athlete. Discipline is not the restraint but the use of energy... When I forbid myself what I may have, no person is going to tempt me with what is truly forbidden Picture Quote #1

If a king tries to start a war, a mother should go to him and forbid it Picture Quote #1

We must have constantly present in our minds the difference between independence and liberty. Liberty is a right of doing whatever the laws permit, and if a citizen could do what they forbid he would no longer be possessed of liberty Picture Quote #1

If some books are deemed most baneful and their sale forbid, how then with deadlier facts, not dreams of doting men? Those whom books will hurt will not be proof against events. Events, not books should be forbid Picture Quote #1

How many attractions for us have our passing fellows in the streets, both male and female, which our ethics forbid us to express, which yet infuse so much pleasure into life.

Laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...
