Eager Quotations
There is a great deal of difference between an eager man who wants to read a book and the tired man who wants a book to read. Gilbert K. Chesterton In my early days, I was eager to learn and to do things, and therefore I learned quickly. Sitting Bull Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday. Eleanor Roosevelt Most of us are about as eager to be changed as we were to be born, and go through our changes in a similar state of shock. James A. Baldwin When a man's willing and eager the god's join in. Aeschylus |
