Prevented Quotations

Aldous Huxley The discovery of truth is prevented more effectively, not by the false appearance things present and which mislead into error, not directly by weakness of the reasoning powers, but by preconceived opinion, by prejudice. Arthur Schopenhauer Freedom is a man's natural power of doing what he pleases, so far as he is not prevented by force or law. Marcus Tullius Cicero I saw that the war could not be prevented. The time had passed. Chief Joseph Everywhere I go, I'm asked if I think the universities stifle writers. My opinion is that they don't stifle enough of them. There's many a best seller that could have been prevented by a good teacher. Flannery O'Connor There's many a bestseller that could have been prevented by a good teacher.
