Great Things Quotes

What we call little things are merely the causes of great things; they are the beginning, the embryo, and it is the point of departure which, generally speaking, decides the whole future of an existence. One single black speck may be the beginning of gangrene, of a storm, of a revolution Picture Quote #1

It must not be forgotten that it is especially dangerous to enslave men in the minor details of life. For my part, I should be inclined to think freedom less necessary in the great things than in the little ones, if it were possible to be secure of the one without the other Picture Quote #1

My mother and father are the only people on the whole planet for whom I will never begrudge a thing. Should I achieve great things, it is the work of their hands; they are splendid people and their absolute love of their children places them above the highest praise. It cloaks all of their shortcomings, shortcomings that may have resulted from a difficult life Picture Quote #1

How laudable it is for a prince to keep good faith and live with integrity, and not with astuteness, every one knows. Still the experience of our times shows those princes to have done great things who have had little regard for good faith, and have been able by astuteness to confuse men’s brains, and who have ultimately overcome those who have made loyalty their foundation Picture Quote #1

There are but two roads that lead to an important goal and to the doing of great things: strength and perseverance. Strength is the lot of but a few privileged men; but austere perseverance, harsh and continuous, may be employed by the smallest of us and rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irresistibly greater with time Picture Quote #1

One of the great things about being ignorant is that I often think my ideas are original. It’s a wonderful feeling. That’s why I try to avoid any knowledge that would spoil the sensation. Sometimes it isn’t easy. People keep hurling knowledge at me, and I can’t always duck Picture Quote #1

Fortunately for me I was able to do well here, and it really did great things for my career and now hopefully I can go out there and continue to do what I did Picture Quote #1

One of the great things about my job is I get to do all of these things that I may not experience had I not been an actor Picture Quote #1

Great things are accomplished by men who are not conscious of the impotence of man. Such insensitiveness is precious. But we must admit that criminals are not unlike our heroes in this respect Picture Quote #1

All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope Picture Quote #1

Those writers who lay on the watch for novelty, could have little hope of greatness; for great things cannot have escaped former observation Picture Quote #1

He who possesses the source of enthusiasm will achieve great things. Doubt not. You will gather friends around you as a hair clasp gathers the hair Picture Quote #1

The truly strong and sound mind is the mind that can embrace equally great things and small. I would have a man great in great things, and elegant in little things Picture Quote #1

Feasts and business and pleasure and enjoyments seem great things to us, whilst we think of nothing else; but as soon as we add death to them they all sink into an equal littleness Picture Quote #1

The sensibility of man to trifles, and his insensibility to great things, are the marks of a strange inversion Picture Quote #1

I have a nice office. I have a nice house... So I’m not denying myself some great things. I just don’t happen to have expensive hobbies Picture Quote #1
