Liable Quotes

While I am watching the birds I believe I am comparatively immune from the assaults of life. The very indifference to humanity of these wild creatures affords me a certain safeguard. Where all else is dangerous, hostile and liable to inflict pain, they alone can do me no injury because, probably, they are not even aware of my existence. The birds are at once my refuge and my relaxation Picture Quote #1

Fear is something I don’t you experience unless you have a choice. If you have a choice, you’re liable to be afraid. But without a choice, what is there to be afraid of? You just go along and do what has to be done Picture Quote #1

If an organised body is not in the situation and circumstances best adapted to its sustenance and propagation, then, in conceiving an indefinite variety among the individuals of that species, we must be assured, that, on the one hand, those which depart most from the best adapted constitution, will be most liable to perish, while, on the other hand, those organised bodies, which most approach to the best constitution for the present circumstances, will be best adapted to continue, in preserving themselves and multiplying the individuals of their race Picture Quote #1

Those who have more power are liable to sin more; no theorem in geometry is more certain than this Picture Quote #1

This one guy’s wife is such a pretty brown thing, that I’m liable to give her a poke or two. Whaddaya think of that? Picture Quote #1

Banks are so protected from liability they would have to really do something that was their mistake in order for them to be liable for it. Banks don’t look at signatures. They’re processing millions of checks and they have very little liability Picture Quote #1

If it be admitted that a man, possessing absolute power, may misuse that power by wronging his adversaries, why should a majority not be liable to the same reproach? Men are not apt to change their character by agglomeration; nor does their patience in the presence of obstacles increase with the consciousness of their strength. And for these reasons I can never willingly invest any number of my fellow creatures with that unlimited authority which I should refuse to any one of them Picture Quote #1

An economist is a man that can tell you...what can happen under any given condition, and his guess is liable to be as good as anybody else’s too Picture Quote #1

The visibility at the best of times is liable to be a bit haxy due to clouds of ignorance Picture Quote #1

Journeys are the midwives of thought. Few places are more conducive to internal conversations than a moving plane, ship or train. There is an almost quaint correlation between what is in front of our eyes and the thoughts we are able to have in our heads: large thoughts at times requiring large views, new thoughts new places. Introspective reflections which are liable to stall are helped along by the flow of the landscape. The mind may be reluctant to think properly when thinking is all it is supposed to do Picture Quote #1

Logic invents as many fallacies as it detects; it is a good weapon, but as liable to be used in a bad as in a good cause Picture Quote #1

I don’t go by what the law say. The law’s liable to say anything. I go by if it’s right or not. It don’t matter what the law say. I take and look at it for myself Picture Quote #1

Among all forms of mentation, verbal thinking is the most articulate, the most complex, and the most vulnerable to infectious diseases. It is liable to absorb whispered suggestions, and to incorporate them as hidden persuaders into the code Picture Quote #1

We hold that the greatest right in the world is the right to be wrong, that in the exercise thereof people have an inviolable right to express their unbridled thoughts on all topics and personalities, being liable only for the use of that right Picture Quote #1

Absurdly improbable things are quite as liable to happen in real life as in weak literature Picture Quote #1

Unwonted circumstances may make us all rather unlike ourselves: there are conditions under which the most majestic person is obliged to sneeze, and our emotions are liable to be acted on in the same incongruous manner Picture Quote #1

Unhappily, no man exists who has not in his own person become, to some amount, a stockholder in the sin, and so made himself liable to a share in the expiation Picture Quote #1

It is not worth the while to let our imperfections disturb us always. The conscience really does not, and ought not to monopolizethe whole of our lives, any more than the heart or the head. It is as liable to disease as any other part Picture Quote #1

He who asks of life nothing but the improvement of his own nature... is less liable than anyone else to miss and waste life Picture Quote #1

I claim to be a simple individual liable to err like any other fellow mortal. I own, however, that I have humility enough to confess my errors and to retrace my steps Picture Quote #1

As long as men are liable to die and are desirous to live, a physician will be made fun of, but he will be well paid Picture Quote #1

If men of eminence are exposed to censure on one hand, they are as much liable to flattery on the other. If they receive reproaches which are not due to them, they likewise receive praises which they do not deserve Picture Quote #1

Weakness has its hidden resources, as well as strength. There is a degree of folly and meanness which we cannot calculate upon, and by which we are as much liable to be foiled as by the greatest ability or courage Picture Quote #1

The government itself, which is only the mode which the people have chosen to execute their will, is equally liable to be abused and perverted before the people can act through it Picture Quote #1

I am lost if I attempt to take count of chronology. When I think over the past, I am like a person whose eyes cannot properly measure distances and is liable to think things extremely remote which on examination prove to be quite near Picture Quote #1

I usually say what I really think. A great mistake nowadays. It makes one so liable to be misunderstood Picture Quote #1

No one is more liable to make mistakes than the man who acts only on reflection Picture Quote #1

Every male citizen of the commonwealth, liable to taxes or to militia duty in any county, shall have a right to vote for representatives for that county to the legislature Picture Quote #1
