Satisfy Quotations
Success without honor is an unseasoned dish; it will satisfy your hunger, but it won't taste good. Joe Paterno It is much easier to suppress a first desire than to satisfy those that follow. Benjamin Franklin A wise man is cured of ambition by ambition itself; his aim is so exalted that riches, office, fortune and favour cannot satisfy him. Samuel Johnson It's a short step from the belief that every child should be wanted to the belief that a child exists to satisfy our wants. Leon Kass After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, and so on - have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear - what remains? Nature remains. Walt Whitman |
