Text Quotes
There is nothing by which men display their character so much as in what they consider ridiculous... Fools and sensible men are equally innocuous. It is in the half fools and the half wise that the great danger lies  (Sensible Quotes) The first merit of pictures is the effect they produce on the mind; and the first step of a sensible man should be to receive involuntary impressions from them. Pleasure and inspiration first; analysis, afterward  (Sensible Quotes) Persons of genius, and those who are most capable of art, are always most fond of nature: as such are chiefly sensible, that all art consists in the imitation and study of nature  (Sensible Quotes) In fact, merely writing the facts on a piece of paper and stating our problem clearly goes a long way toward helping us to reach a sensible decision  (Sensible Quotes) You have to have a temperament to grab ideas and do sensible things. Most people don’t grab the right ideas or don’t know what to do with them  (Sensible Quotes) A lottery is a salutary instrument and a tax... laid on the willing only, that is to say, on those who can risk the price of a ticket without sensible injury, for the possibility of a higher prize  (Sensible Quotes) The most delicate, the most sensible of all pleasures, consists in promoting the pleasure of others  (Sensible Quotes) He shall despise none, but hear the opinions of all.

A good statesman, like any other sensible human being, always learns more from his opponents than from his fervent supporters. For his supporters will push him to disaster unless his opponents show him where the dangers are. So if he is wise he will often pray to be delivered from his friends, because they will ruin him. But though it hurts, he ought also to pray never to be left without opponents; for they keep him on the path of reason and good sense  (Sensible Quotes) Unless a man is prepared to ask a woman to be his wife, what right has he to claim her exclusive attention? Unless she has been asked to marry him, why would a sensible woman promise any man her exclusive attention? If, when the time has come for a commitment, he is not man enough to ask her to marry him, she should give him no reason to presume that she belongs to him  (Sensible Quotes) Nobody can live in society without conventions. The reason why sensible people are as conventional as they can bear to be is that conventionality saves so much time and thought and trouble and social friction of one sort or another that it leaves them much more leisure time for freedom than unconventionality does  (Sensible Quotes) Throughout the whole vegetable, sensible, and rational world, whatever makes progress towards maturity, as soon as it has passed that point, begins to verge towards decay  (Sensible Quotes) We have a set of sensible policies that are appropriate for the 21st century and which strike a chord of appeal with the silent majority. Perhaps that is why we are welcoming new members every week who have never before been involved in politics  (Sensible Quotes) To write what is worth publishing, to find honest people to publish it, and get sensible people to read it, are the three great difficulties in being an author  (Sensible Quotes) I got a feeling that when I have kids, I’m going to have a little girl, and she’s going to be completely sensible  (Sensible Quotes) He who tells a lie, is not sensible how great a task he undertakes; for he must be forced to invent twenty more to maintain that one  (Sensible Quotes) So why sign your name in blood for more? It seemed like a sensible arrangement for me. I didn’t sell large numbers of records and the record company paid advances they rarely recouped  (Sensible Quotes) It’s hard to be responsible, adult and sensible all the time. How good it is to have a sister whose heart is as young as your own  (Sensible Quotes) One is more certain to influence men, to produce more effect on them, by absurdities than by sensible ideas  (Sensible Quotes) War is a serious game in which a man risks his reputation, his troops, and his country. A sensible man will search himself to know whether or not he is fitted for the trade  (Sensible Quotes) No matter how dysfunctional the present, no matter how sensible the reasons for change, most people and organizations would rather wring out the old than ring in the new  (Sensible Quotes) I advance with obedience to the work, ready to retire from it whenever you become sensible how much better choice it is in your power to make  (Sensible Quotes) I had gotten into the habit of sleeping late because I had started to see that this was the only sensible way I could kill time  (Sensible Quotes) I like talking when people ask me sensible questions. Ask me senseless questions also, but in a context, and I can have fun, I can make you laugh at my answers  (Sensible Quotes) A sensible man should not demand of me, or hope that when we mention a subject, we shall make a complete exposition of it  (Sensible Quotes) Sensible men show their sense by saying much in few words. Noble actions are the substance of life; good sayings its ornament and guide  (Sensible Quotes) We are not sensible of the most perfect health, as we are of the least sickness  (Sensible Quotes) We are more sensible of one little touch of a surgeon’s lancet than of twenty wounds with a sword in the heat of fight  (Sensible Quotes)
