Those precious images are placed above the reach of the passions  (Passions Quotes) Amid all the bangs and the drama and the grand passions, it's kindness and just ordinary goodness that stands out in the end  (Passions Quotes) It is with our passions as it is with fire and water, they are good servants, but bad masters  (Passions Quotes) The passions grafted on wounded pride are the most inveterate; they are green and vigorous in old age  (Passions Quotes) If we're nothing more than our thoughts and passions, and if our thoughts and passions are nothing more than movements of our souls, then we are nothing more than those who move us  (Passions Quotes) What good are the passions? For sooner or later their sweet sickness ends when reason speaks up; and life, if surveyed with cold - blooded regard is stupid and empty - a joke  (Passions Quotes) Every civilization is, among other things, an arrangement for domesticating the passions and setting them to do useful work  (Passions Quotes) People have obsessions and fears and passions which they don't admit to. I think every character is interesting and has extremes. It's the novelist privilege to see how odd everyone is  (Passions Quotes) So what happened when base desires and unworthy passions troubled the flesh of men and women inhibited from casual promiscuity, adultery, and divorce that keep us so healthy?  (Passions Quotes) Strength instead of being the lusty child of passions, grows by grappling with and subduing them  (Passions Quotes) Our passions are the true phoenixes; when the old one is burnt out, a new one rises from its ashes  (Passions Quotes) If we resist our passions, it is more because of their weakness than because of our strength  (Passions Quotes) From their experience or from the recorded experience of others (history), men learn only what their passions and their metaphysical prejudices allow them to learn  (Passions Quotes) As long as I retain my feeling and my passion for nature, I can partly soften or subdue my other passions and resist or endure those of others  (Passions Quotes) Great souls are not those who have fewer passions and more virtues than others, but only those who have greater designs  (Passions Quotes) Those that have had great passions esteem themselves for the rest of their lives fortunate and unfortunate in being cured of them  (Passions Quotes) Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind  (Passions Quotes) The very essence of literature is the war between emotion and intellect, between life and death. When literature becomes too intellectual - when it begins to ignore the passions, the emotions - it becomes sterile, silly, and actually without substance  (Passions Quotes) Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses  (Passions Quotes) I think the best thing for you to do is just live your life. Live a life that's worth living, one where you do what you want to do, pursue your passions. That way, if you meet someone, they'll be joining a life that's already really good  (Passions Quotes) Ideas devour the ages as men are devoured by their passions. When man is cured, human nature will cure itself perhaps  (Passions Quotes) There is a boundary to men's passions when they act from feelings; but none when they are under the influence of imagination  (Passions Quotes) The love of the famous, like all strong passions, is quite abstract. Its intensity can be measured mathematically, and it is independent of persons  (Passions Quotes) When I'm getting to know someone, I look for someone who has passions that I respect, like his career. Someone who loves what he does is really attractive  (Passions Quotes) The assumption is that the right kind of society is an organic being not merely analogous to an organic being, but actually a living structure with appetites and digestions, instincts and passions, intelligence and reason  (Passions Quotes)
