|
A sense of humor keen enough to show a man his own absurdities will keep him from the commission of all sins, or nearly all, save those worth committing.
Samuel Butler Anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices. Voltaire As long as people believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities. Voltaire Is it not a species of blasphemy to call the New Testament revealed religion, when we see in it such contradictions and absurdities. Thomas Paine Poor human reason, when it trusts in itself, substitutes the strangest absurdities for the highest divine concepts. John Chrysostom Sometimes the laughter in mothering is the recognition of the ironies and absurdities. Sometimes, though, it's just pure, unthinking delight. Barbara Schapiro The greater absurdities are, the more strongly they evince the falsity of that supposition from whence they flow. Francis Atterbury The philosophies of one age have become the absurdities of the next, and the foolishness of yesterday has become the wisdom of tomorrow. William Osler Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities. Voltaire To all the rest of his Absurdities, (for vice is always unreasonable,) he adds one more, who expects that Vertue from another which he won't practise himself. Mary Astell You've just got to focus on excellence and try not to be distracted by the news and the rumors and the absurdities of the stories that were coming out. James Daly |
