Approbation Quotations
Whenever we approve, we can find a hundred good reasons to justify our approbation. Whenever we dislike, we can find a thousand to justify our dislike. Samuel Richardson I have no other view than to promote the public good, and am unambitious of honors not founded in the approbation of my Country. George Washington We ask advice, but we mean approbation. Charles Caleb Colton Mankind are divided into sects, and individuals think very differently on religious subjects, from the purest motives; and that gracious common Parent, who loves all his children alike, beholds with approbation every one who worships him in sincerity. Joseph Lancaster The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God. Leo Tolstoy |
