Claudio Hummes In love, one should simplify, choose persons worthy of their promises and leave them if they don't keep them. Isabelle Adjani In my deepest troubles, I frequently would wrench myself from the persons around me and retire to some secluded part of our noble forests. John James Audubon In order to get beyond racism, we must first take account of race. There is no other way. And in order to treat some persons equally, we must treat them differently. Harry A. Blackmun In planning an attack, persons have various roles. Robert Mueller In real life, the most practical advice for leaders is not to treat pawns like pawns, nor princes like princes, but all persons like persons. James MacGregor Burns In science, we must be interested in things, not in persons. Marie Curie In such a case secrecy must be absolute to be effective, and although mere vague curiosity induced many persons of my intimate acquaintance to ask to be allowed to just go in and have a peep, I never admitted anyone. Henry Bessemer It frequently happens that two persons, reasoning right on a mechanical subject, think alike and invent the same thing without any communication with each other. Oliver Evans It is folly for an eminent man to think of escaping censure, and a weakness to be affected with it. All the illustrious persons of antiquity, and indeed of every age in the world, have passed through this fiery persecution. Joseph Addison It is just as cowardly to judge an absent person as it is wicked to strike a defenseless one. Only the ignorant and narrow-minded gossip, for they speak of persons instead of things. Lawrence G. Lovasik It is love rather than sexual lust or unbridled sexuality if, in addition to the need or want involved, there is also some impulse to give pleasure to the persons thus loved and not merely to use them for our own selfish pleasure. Mortimer Adler It is odd how learned persons fail to see that new terms and definitions are apt to mean new doubts and litigation. Frederick Pollock It is only by risking our persons from one hour to another that we live at all. And often enough our faith beforehand in an uncertified result is the only thing that makes the result come true. William James It is quite extraordinary how very various are the opinions entertained on this point, and, before sifting them, one must be careful in the first place to eliminate from our inquiry the cases of that considerable class of persons who pinch themselves. James Payn It is to be regretted that few persons who have arrived at any degree of eminence or fame, have written Memorials of themselves, at least such as have embraced their private as well as their public life. Adam Clarke It is true that the poet does not directly address his neighbors; but he does address a great congress of persons who dwell at the back of his mind, a congress of all those who have taught him and whom he has admired; they constitute his ideal audience and his better self. Richard Wilbur It is very difficult to get up resentment towards persons whom one has never seen. John Henry Newman It not infrequently happens that persons without any other special qualification than the drama of their lives are precipitated into important political positions. Charles Edward Merriam It's surprising how many persons go through life without ever recognizing that their feelings toward other people are largely determined by their feelings toward themselves, and if you're not comfortable within yourself, you can't be comfortable with others. Sydney J. Harris |
