Cautious Quotations
In each action we must look beyond the action at our past, present, and future state, and at others whom it affects, and see the relations of all those things. And then we shall be very cautious. Blaise Pascal Thou ought to be nice, even to superstition, in keeping thy promises, and therefore equally cautious in making them. Thomas Fuller How prone to doubt, how cautious are the wise! Alexander Pope Just as a cautious businessman avoids investing all his capital in one concern, so wisdom would probably admonish us also not to anticipate all our happiness from one quarter alone. Sigmund Freud Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputations... can never effect a reform. Susan B. Anthony |
