As a nation we have the right to decide our own affairs, to mould our own future. This does not pose any danger to anybody. Our nation is fully aware of the responsibility for its own fate in the complicated situation of the contemporary world.
Lech Walesa I am atheist in a very religious mould. I'm always asking myself the big questions. Where did we come from? Is there a meaning to all of this? When I find myself in church, I edit the hymns as I sing them. Mark Haddon I refuse to imprison our acts in the rigid mould of sentences. Ella Maillart Ideas any one can mould as he wishes. Josiah Royce If he who employs coercion against me could mould me to his purposes by argument, no doubt he would. He pretends to punish me because his argument is strong; but he really punishes me because his argument is weak. William Godwin If you are cast in a different mould to the majority, it is no merit of yours: Nature did it. Charlotte Bronte If you cannot mould yourself entirely as you would wish, how can you expect other people to be entirely to your liking? Thomas Kempis It has always been my practice to cast a long paragraph in a single mould, to try it by my ear, to deposit it in my memory, but to suspend the action of the pen till I had given the last polish to my work. Edward Gibbon It is our less conscious thoughts and our less conscious actions which mainly mould our lives and the lives of those who spring from us. Samuel Butler It will be a pity if women in the more conventional mould are to be phased out, for there will never be anyone to go home to. Anita Brookner No faction is better or worse than any other. All come from the same mould; they are all products of capitalist influence in the working class movement. And they are a poison that destroys our Party and the working class movement in Korea. Kim Jong Il Shall I not have intelligence with the earth? Am I not partly leaves and vegetable mould myself. Henry David Thoreau So must the writer, whose productions should Take with the vulgar, be of vulgar mould. Edmund Waller The power to mould the future of the Republic will be in the hands of the journalists of future generations. Joseph Pulitzer There is much to support the view that it is clothes that wear us, and not we, them; we may make them take the mould of arm or breast, but they mould our hearts, our brains, our tongues to their liking. Virginia Woolf Well I think they broke the mould when they made me and being humble is one of my great assets. Larry Hagman What was any art but a mould in which to imprison for a moment the shining elusive element which is life itself - life hurrying past us and running away, too strong to stop, too sweet to lose. Willa Cather |
