Thomas Hardy It is Homer who has chiefly taught other poets the art of telling lies skillfully. Aristotle It is virtually impossible to control Northern Kenya, which is populated chiefly by migrant nomads. Richard Leakey It is, alas, chiefly the evil emotions that are able to leave their photographs on surrounding scenes and objects and whoever heard of a place haunted by a noble deed, or of beautiful and lovely ghosts revisiting the glimpses of the moon? Algernon H. Blackwood Man's real life is happy, chiefly because he is ever expecting that it soon will be so. Edgar Allan Poe Not life, but good life, is to be chiefly valued. Socrates Nothing mattered except states of mind, chiefly our own. John Maynard Keynes On the whole, the world was friendly. It chiefly depended on whether one were good or not.

William Hazlitt The financial history of the Baltimore and Ohio since the close of the nineteenth century is interesting chiefly in connection with changes in the control of the property. John Moody The largest and most influential houses chiefly demonstrate the aloofness of the French approach. Stephen Gardiner The Legislature of Lower Canada, consisting chiefly of Roman Catholics, could hardly be expected to support a church which they were taught to consider heretical, and in Upper Canada the scanty means at the disposal of the Government, precluded all hope. John Strachan The one book necessary to be understood by a divine, is the Bible; any others are to be read, chiefly, in order to understand that. Francis Lockier The world's battlefields have been in the heart chiefly; more heroism has been displayed in the household and the closet, than on the most memorable battlefields in history.
