Text Quotes
Posterity always degenerates till it becomes our ancestors  (Degenerates Quotes) All knowledge degenerates into probability  (Degenerates Quotes) Hospitality sometimes degenerates into profuseness, and ends in madness and folly  (Degenerates Quotes) Alas! poor human nature, pity, if hard pressed, degenerates into contempt  (Degenerates Quotes) Every good idea sooner or later degenerates into hard work  (Degenerates Quotes) Monarchy degenerates into tyranny, aristocracy into oligarchy, and democracy into savage violence and chaos  (Degenerates Quotes) The white man in the tropics degenerates every day  (Degenerates Quotes) Wit without humanity degenerates into bitterness. Learning without prudence into pedantry  (Degenerates Quotes) Society has no business to permit degenerates to reproduce their kind  (Degenerates Quotes) When our life ceases to be inward and private, conversation degenerates into mere gossip  (Degenerates Quotes) Without the truth of the people, politics degenerates into mere spectacle and democracy declines, leaving demagoguery and cynicism to fill the void.  (Degenerates Quotes) Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket  (Degenerates Quotes) For people that are degenerates, if you’ve spent so much time feeling a certain way, it’s actually uncomfortable to feel like a winner. The familiarity of losing is, in an inverse way, comforting. At least you know where you stand.  (Degenerates Quotes) Humility is a quality for which I have only a limited admiration. In many phases of life it is a great mistake and degenerates into defensiveness or hypocrisy  (Degenerates Quotes) The prejudice of unfounded belief often degenerates into the prejudice of custom, and becomes at last rank hypocrisy. When men, from custom or fashion or any worldly motive, profess or pretend to believe what they do not believe, nor can give any reason for believing, they unship the helm of their morality, and being no longer honest to their own minds they feel no moral difficulty in being unjust to others  (Degenerates Quotes) It must be confessed that horses at present work too exclusively for men, rarely men for horses; and the brute degenerates in man’s society  (Degenerates Quotes) Most of the trades, professions, and ways of living among mankind, take their original either from the love of the pleasure, or the fear of want. The former, when it becomes too violent, degenerates into luxury, and the latter into avarice  (Degenerates Quotes) I had got to the dawn of the beautiful not caring, but fully aware, stage, which degenerates so imperceptibly into the doing something unpermissible stage  (Degenerates Quotes) Without an allegiance to beauty, art degenerates into a caricature of itself. It is beauty that animates aesthetic experience, making it so seductive; but aesthetic experience itself degenerates into a kind of fetish or idol if it is held up as an end in itself, untested by the rest of life  (Degenerates Quotes) If nobody talks about books, if they are not discussed or somehow contended with, literature ceases to be a conversation, ceases to be dynamic. Most of all, it ceases to be intimate. It degenerates into a monologue or a mutter. An unreviewed book is a struck bell that gives no resonance. Without reviews, literature would be oddly mute in spite of all those words on all those pages of all those books. Reviewing makes of reading a participant sport, not a spectator sport  (Degenerates Quotes) The cell is immortal. It is merely the fluid in which it floats that degenerates. Renew this fluid at regular intervals, give the cells what they require for nutrition, and as far as we know, the pulsation of life can go on forever  (Degenerates Quotes) Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity  (Degenerates Quotes) Without a notion of the transcendental, human beings would, indeed, be animals; however, only fools can be convinced of it, and only degenerates need such a conviction  (Degenerates Quotes) Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories  (Degenerates Quotes)
