Everything one tries to do for the common good ends in failure  (Common Quotes) Just because we’re sisters under the skin doesn’t mean we’ve got much in common  (Common Quotes) Courage and modesty are the most unequivocal of virtues, for they are of a kind that hypocrisy cannot imitate; they too have this quality in common, that they are expressed by the same color  (Common Quotes) The most common cause of fear of old age is associated with the possibility of poverty  (Common Quotes) The course of my long life hath reached at last in fragile bark over a tempestuous sea the common harbor, where must rendered be account for all the actions of the past  (Common Quotes) The secret of popular writing is never to put more on a given page than the common reader can lap off it with no strain whatsoever on his habitually slack attention  (Common Quotes) People who are not in love fail to understand how an intelligent man can suffer because of a very ordinary woman. This is like being surprised that anyone should be stricken with cholera because of a creature so insignificant as the common bacillus  (Common Quotes) The common foible of women who have been handsome is to forget that they are no longer so  (Common Quotes) The common practice of keeping up appearances with society is a mere selfish struggle of the vain with the vain  (Common Quotes) Men of great parts are often unfortunate in the management of public business, because they are apt to go out of the common road by the quickness of their imagination  (Common Quotes) We are born to lose and to perish, to hope and to fear, to vex ourselves and others; and there is no antidote against a common calamity but virtue; for the foundation of true joy is in the conscience  (Common Quotes) That incessant envy wherewith the common rate of mankind pursues all superior natures to their own  (Common Quotes) If the obstacles of bigotry and priestcraft can be surmounted, we may hope that common sense will suffice to do everything else  (Common Quotes) When the philosopher’s argument becomes tedious, complicated, and opaque, it is usually a sign that he is attempting to prove as true to the intellect what is plainly false to common sense  (Common Quotes) Learning, to be of much use, must have a tendency to spread itself among the common people  (Common Quotes) To breed up the son to common sense is evermore the parent’s least expense  (Common Quotes) Whenever the offence inspires less horror than the punishment, the rigour of penal law is obliged to give way to the common feelings of mankind  (Common Quotes) The sculptor does not work for the anatomist, but for the common observer of life and nature  (Common Quotes) It is very common for us to desire most what we are least qualified to obtain  (Common Quotes) We sometimes learn more from the sight of evil than from an example of good; and it is well to accustom ourselves to profit by the evil which is so common, while that which is good is so rare  (Common Quotes) In the common run of mankind, for one that is wise and good you find ten of a contrary character  (Common Quotes) Dignity does not come from avenging insults, especially from violence that can never be justified.
