Permit Quotes - BrainyQuote

I have a private life in which I do not permit interference. It must be respected.

Capitalism does not permit an even flow of economic resources. With this system, a small privileged few are rich beyond conscience, and almost all others are doomed to be poor at some level. That's the way the system works. And since we know that the system will not change the rules, we are going to have to change the system. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Small, Works, Some

Cute, Why, Unwilling

But... when we're doing news - when we're doing the front-page news, not the back page, not the op-ed pages, but when we're doing the daily news, covering politics - it is our duty to be sure that we do not permit our prejudices to show. That is simply basic journalism. Walter Cronkite

Politics, Doing, Covering

Give, Spare Time, Which

When we sit at the table, there is more going on than satisfying hunger. It is sad to think of those who eat simply to satisfy their hunger and who do not permit themselves to linger under the many spells offered by a good meal - the satisfaction of our hearts, our minds and our spirits. Leo Buscaglia

Good, Minds, Our

Government, Bribery, Form

While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see. Dorothea Lange

More, Tell, Which

Grant me the treasure of sublime poverty: permit the distinctive sign of our order to be that it does not possess anything of its own beneath the sun, for the glory of your name, and that it have no other patrimony than begging. Francis of Assisi

Other, Own, Beneath

Here, Some, Residency

Deal, Dayton, Diplomats

Strong, Been, Proper
