Enforced Quotes

This is the excellent foppery of the world, that, when we are sick in fortune, often the surfeit of our own behavior, we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars: as if we were villains by necessity; fools by heavenly compulsion; knaves, thieves, and treachers, by spherical predominance; drunkards, liars, and adulterers, by an enforced obedience of planetary influence; and all that we are evil in, by a divine thrusting on: an admirable evasion of whoremaster man, to lay his goatish disposition to the charge of a star Picture Quote #1

The lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the government, government should not support the people Picture Quote #1

Don’t condemn the gangbangers, they’ve got guns that are trafficked, that are not enforced, that are straw purchased and they come into places even that have strong gun laws. Why? Because we don’t have sensible gun legislation Picture Quote #1

You are yoked with a lamb, that carries anger as the flint bears fire; who, much enforced, shows a hasty spank, and straight is cold again Picture Quote #1

Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe Picture Quote #1

O Cassius, you are yoked with a lamb that carries anger as the flint bears fire; who, much enforced, shows a hasty spark, and straight is cold again Picture Quote #1

To be sure, nothing is more important to the integrity of the universities... Than a rigorously enforced divorce from war oriented research and all connected enterprises Picture Quote #1

Let reverence for the laws be breathed by every American mother to the lisping babe that prattles on her lap. Let it be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in colleges. Let it be written in primers, spelling books, and in almanacs. Let it be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in the courts of justice. And, in short, let it become the political religion of the nation Picture Quote #1

After all, enforced national bilingualism in this country isn't mere policy. It has attained the status of a religion. It's a dogma which one is supposed to accept without question Picture Quote #1

Enforced religion breeds precisely what it most fears: rebellion against religion, cynicism about religion, skepticism about its claims, and, as a consequence, indifference at best or outright antipathy at worst Picture Quote #1

The mice which helplessly find themselves between the cats teeth acquire no merit from their enforced sacrifice Picture Quote #1

Working hours are never long enough. Each day is a holiday, and ordinary holidays are grudged as enforced interruptions in an absorbing vocation Picture Quote #1

Ours is the century of enforced travel of disappearances. The century of people helplessly seeing others, who were close to them, disappear over the horizon Picture Quote #1

I was very lighthearted. This often the way when the abandonment of personal responsibility is enforced: neither wronged innocence or just guilt can seriously impair the sensation of freedom one has Picture Quote #1

I would argue that a majority of the horrors we face would not have happened if the accounting profession developed and enforced better accounting Picture Quote #1

Whatever is enforced by command is more imputed to him who exacts than to him who performs Picture Quote #1

The most strongly enforced of all known taboos is the taboo against knowing who or what you really are behind the mask of your apparently separate, independent, and isolated ego Picture Quote #1

There should be no element of slavery in learning. Enforced exercise does no harm to the body, but enforced learning will not stay in the mind. So avoid compulsion, and let your children’s lessons take the form of play Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I ate a green vegetable until I was 30. I didn’t grow up with a mom who enforced that at all Picture Quote #1

People are increasingly frustrated that decisions taken further and further away from them mean their living standards are slashed through enforced austerity or their taxes are used to bail out governments on the other side of the continent Picture Quote #1

Colonialism. The enforced spread of the rule of reason. But who is going to spread it among the colonizers? Picture Quote #1

I am happy to say that everyone that I have met in my life, I have gained something from them; be it negative or positive, it has enforced and reinforced my life in some aspect Picture Quote #1

I have served many long and lonely years aboard ship in war zones, and the only thing that kept me sane during all that enforced loneliness was my access to a good library in which I read, literally, every book on the shelves, even textbooks, and which gave me access to other worlds no way open to me Picture Quote #1

The verb that’s been enforced on girls is to please. Girls are trained to please... I want us all to change the verb. I want the verb to be educate, or activate, or engage, or confront, or defy, or create Picture Quote #1

Most conduct is guided by norms rather than by laws. Norms are voluntary and are effective because they are enforced by peer pressure Picture Quote #1

Most of the harm in the world is done by good people, and not by accident, lapse, or omission. It is the result of their deliberate actions, long persevered in, which they hold to be motivated by high ideals toward virtuous ends... when millions are slaughtered, when torture is practiced, starvation enforced, oppression made a policy, as at present over a large part of the world, and as it has often been in the past, it must be at the behest of very many good people, and even by their direct action, for what they consider a worthy object Picture Quote #1

Anything other than free enterprise always means a society of compulsion and lower living standards, and any form of socialism strictly enforced means dictatorship and the total state. That this statement is still widely disputed only illustrates the degree to which malignant fantasy can capture the imagination of intellectuals Picture Quote #1
