Text Quotes
Anybody is qualified, according to everybody, for giving opinions upon poetry. It is not so in chemistry and mathematics. Nor is it so, I believe, in whist and the polka. But then these are more serious things  (Upon Quotes) The strength of the claims of formal justice, of obedience to system, clearly depend upon the substantive justice of institutions and the possibilities of their reform  (Upon Quotes) Those who do the least themselves are always the severest critics upon the noble achievements of others  (Upon Quotes) Antipater uses us favourably if he looks upon us as staves, but very hardly if he considers us as freemen  (Upon Quotes) Our bodies penetrate the sofas upon which we sit and the sofas penetrate our bodies. The motorbus rushes into the houses which it passes, and in their turn the houses throw themselves upon the bus and are blended with it  (Upon Quotes) What I do I am driven to do. I follow the dictates of a looming and unseen force. I try to become like a musical instrument, intruding no sound of its own but bringing forth such tones as are played upon it by a master’s hand  (Upon Quotes) That your own interpretation of a work of art is flagrantly subjective seems to be regarded as an arrogant attitude. But the truer view is that the interpretative artist can only make his own comment upon the work  (Upon Quotes) Religion is an edifice built upon the dream of a beautiful world... Pity the dreamers are rarely builders  (Upon Quotes) A people who mean to be free must be prepared to meet danger in person, and not rely upon the fallacious protection of armies  (Upon Quotes) The importance of writing in the breakdown of the bicameral voices is tremendously important. What had to be spoken is now silent and carved upon a stone to be taken in visually  (Upon Quotes) We have learned to live with unholiness and have come to look upon it as the natural and expected thing  (Upon Quotes) There is within each of us a modulation, an inner exaltation, which lifts us above the buffetings with which events assail us. Likewise, it lifts us above dependence upon the gifts of events for our joy  (Upon Quotes) Children learn to read by being in the presence of books. The love of knowledge comes with reading and grows upon it. and the love of knowledge, in a young mind, is almost a warrant against the inferior excitement of passions and vices  (Upon Quotes) If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will have succeeded as a parent and you will have given your children the greatest of all blessings  (Upon Quotes) Our sufferings have taught us that no nation is sufficient unto itself, and that our prosperity depends in the long run, not upon the failures of our neighbors but their successes  (Upon Quotes) It seems to me that, with but slight reserve and modification, we may apply to our departed friend his own pathetic and beautiful elegy upon another  (Upon Quotes) Positive secularism is not tolerance of all religions, but it is the total denial of religious beliefs: it is the emergence of homogeneous human outlook which is based upon verifiable facts of life  (Upon Quotes) Once upon a time there was a saucer pie. A saucer pie is one that is baked in a saucer instead of a pan; and if you have never seen one, I hope you will before you are a hundred years old  (Upon Quotes) Great wits, like great beauties, look upon mere esteem as a flat insipid thing; nothing less than admiration will content them  (Upon Quotes) The tendency to superstitions should be counteracted from the earliest age; or rather steps should be taken to protect the mind of the child from superstitions imposed upon it by ignorant nurses or silly mothers  (Upon Quotes) Meditation is that exercise of the mind by which it recalls a known truth, as some kind of creatures do their food, to be ruminated upon till all the valuable parts be extracted  (Upon Quotes) Education that consists in learning things and not the meaning of them is feeding upon the husks and not the corn  (Upon Quotes) It will be found, as men grow more tolerant in their instincts, that many uniformities now insisted upon are useless and even harmful  (Upon Quotes) An unholy church! It is useless to the world, and of no esteem among men. It is an abomination, hells laughter, heavens abhorrence. The worst evils which have ever come upon the world have been brought upon her by an unholy church  (Upon Quotes) Bourne concentrated on rest and mobility. From somewhere in his forgotten past he understood that recovery depended upon both and he applied rigid discipline to both  (Upon Quotes) There is many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory, but, boys, it is all hell. You can bear this warning voice to generations yet to come. I look upon war with horror  (Upon Quotes) I always shoot at privates. It was they who did the shooting and killing, and if I could kill a wound a private, why, my chances were so much the better. I always looked upon officers as harmless personages  (Upon Quotes) We cannot make owners by merely giving men something to own. And, I repeat, whether there be sufficient desire for property left upon which we can work, only experience can decide  (Upon Quotes) The wage earner relies upon the ventures of confident and contented capital. This failing him, his condition is without alleviation, for he can neither prey on the misfortune of others nor hoard his labor  (Upon Quotes) The word capital, as philologists trace it, comes down to us from a time when wealth was estimated in cattle, and a man’s income depended upon the number of head he could keep for their increase  (Upon Quotes)
