The beautiful spring came; and when Nature resumes her loveliness, the human soul is apt to revive also (Apt Quotes)
Among all kinds of Writing, there is none in which Authors are more apt to miscarry than in Works of Humour, as there is none in which they are more ambitious to excel (Apt Quotes)
Men are but children of a larger growth, Our appetites as apt to change as theirs, And full as craving too, and full as vain (Apt Quotes)

People who look through keyholes are apt to get the idea that most things are keyhole shaped (Apt Quotes)
People who live in quiet, remote places are apt to give good dinners. They are the oft-recurring excitement of an otherwise unemotional, dull existence. They linger, each of these dinners, in our palimpsest memories, each recorded clearly, so that it does not blot out the others (Apt Quotes)
Shall I tell you what makes love so dangerous? ‘Tis the too high idea we are apt to form of it (Apt Quotes)
Knowledge is the parent of knowledge. He who possesses most of the information of his age will not quietly submit to neglect its current acquisitions, but will go on improving as long as means and opportunities offer; while he who finds himself ignorant of most things, is only too apt to shrink from a labour which becomes Herculean. (Apt Quotes)
Among all kinds of Writing, there is none in which Authors are more apt to miscarry than in Works of Humour, as there is none in which they are more ambitious to excel. (Apt Quotes)
Today’s average American is more apt to rebel against a tennis shoe not coming in the right color than against the slow erosion of our democratic freedom. (Apt Quotes)
We have all heard of the animal standing in doubt between two stacks of hay and starving to death, the like of which would never happen to Gen. Cass. Place stacks a thousand miles apart: he would stand stock still, midway between them, and eat them both at once; and the green grass along the line would be apt to suffer some, too, at the same time. (Apt Quotes)
The symbolism seemed so apt. The same technology that can propel apocalyptic weapons from continent to continent would enable the first human voyage to another planet. It was a choice of fitting mythic power: to embrace the planet named after, rather than the madness ascribed to, the God of war. (Apt Quotes)
Any two public institutions appealing to the same set of people are apt to appeal in the same terms. (Apt Quotes)
The beautiful part of writing is that you don’t have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon. You can always do it better, find the exact word, the apt phrase, the leaping simile. (Apt Quotes)
The beautiful spring came; and when Nature resumes her loveliness, the human soul is apt to revive also. (Apt Quotes)
The English expression ‘to fall asleep’ is apt because the transition between waking and sleeping is a gradual drop from one state of being into another: a giving up of full self-consciousness for unconsciousness or for the altered consciousness of dreams. (Apt Quotes)
The best leaders are apt to be found among those executives who have a strong component of unorthodoxy in their character. Instead of resisting innovation, they symbolize it. (Apt Quotes)
I cannot too greatly emphasize the importance and value of Bible study - more important than ever before in these days of uncertainties, when men and woman are apt to decide questions from the standpoint of expediency rather than the eternal principles laid down by God, Himself. (Apt Quotes)
For many, the recent disclosure of massive warrantless surveillance programs of all citizens by the Obama administration has brought back memories of George Orwell’s 1984.’ Another Orwell book seems more apt as the White House and its allies try to contain the scandal: ‘Animal Farm.’ (Apt Quotes)
When a man comes out of great danger, he is apt to be a little deaf to the call of duty (Apt Quotes)
Men are but children of a larger growth, Our appetites as apt to change as theirs, And full as craving too, and full as vain. (Apt Quotes)
Just as the rain carries positive ions, so does change make you more apt to experience love with an expansive heart. (Apt Quotes)
Too-broad questions, such as, What’s on your mind? are apt to be answered nothing nearly one hundred percent of the time. Be careful of slipping into psycho-speak, however. Kids pick up instantly your attempt at being a pseudo-shrink. Most resent it and are apt to tune out anything that sounds like you’re reading a script from the latest child-psychology text. (Apt Quotes)
I’ve come to see the mosh pit as an apt description of American society - and of my childhood home. I was number nine of ten creative, mostly loud kids competing for airspace. (Apt Quotes)
The class distinctions proper to a democratic society are not those of rank or money, still less, as is apt to happen when these are abandoned, of race, but of age. (Apt Quotes)
Human beings make a strange fauna and flora. From a distance they appear negligible; close up they are apt to appear ugly and malicious. More than anything they need to be surrounded with sufficient space•space even more than time. (Apt Quotes)
Your kids might feel more apt to try some art of their own after viewing contemporary works that are far less intimidating than those of the Old Masters. (Apt Quotes)
