Recourse Quotations
Depend upon it that if a man talks of his misfortunes there is something in them that is not disagreeable to him; for where there is nothing but pure misery there never is any recourse to the mention of it.
Samuel Johnson
Nature scarcely ever gives us the very best; for that we must have recourse to art.
Baltasar Gracian
To have frequent recourse to narrative betrays great want of imagination.
Lord Chesterfield
Literature is the expression of a feeling of deprivation, a recourse against a sense of something missing. But the contrary is also true: language is what makes us human. It is a recourse against the meaningless noise and silence of nature and history.
Octavio Paz
It is a struggle for the minds of the people... No cause justifies recourse to terrorism.
Manmohan Singh
Progress will always have as its recourse to exaggerate what it cannot surpass.
Franz Grillparzer

E. Howard Hunt
