Text Quotes
All knowledge is of itself of some value. There is nothing so minute or inconsiderable, that I would not rather know it than not. In the same manner, all power, of whatever sort, is of itself desirable. A man would not submit to learn to hem a ruffle, of his wife, or his wife’s maid; but if a mere wish could attain it, he would rather wish to be able to hem a ruffle (Mere Quotes)
We have the possibility of being far removed from what we are, of beginning to taste it and feel it. That is direct knowledge. That is truth. Anything else is mere words (Mere Quotes)
Just because something isn’t a lie does not mean that it isn’t deceptive. A liar knows that he is a liar, but one who speaks mere portions of truth in order to deceive is a craftsman of destruction (Mere Quotes)
Our advanced art approaches a fragile but marvelous life, one that maintains itself by a mere thread, melting into an elusive, changeable configuration, the surroundings, the artist, his work and everyone who comes to it (Mere Quotes)
Marriage now tends to be viewed as a form of mere emotional satisfaction that can be constructed in any way or modified at will. But the indispensible contribution of marriage to society transcends the feelings and momentary needs of the couple (Mere Quotes)
The world inside myself is vaster and richer than this paltry plane, peopled with mere galaxies and gods (Mere Quotes)
The more I find life to be a great design, the more I suspect it to be singular in existence; the more I suspect it to be singular, the more I feel it to be specific and personal; the more I feel it to be personal, the more I think of it to be a mere question; And the more I think of it to be a question, the less I understand the questioner (Mere Quotes)
When virtue is lost, benevolence appears, when benevolence is lost right conduct appears, when right conduct is lost, expedience appears. Expediency is the mere shadow of right and truth; it is the beginning of disorder (Mere Quotes)
Life to the great majority is only a constant struggle for mere existence, with the certainty of losing it at last (Mere Quotes)
Impurity is a mere superimposition under which your real nature has become hidden. But the real you is already perfect, already strong (Mere Quotes)
As a great part of the uneasiness of matrimony arises from mere trifles,, it would be wise in every young married man to enter into an agreement with his wife, that in all disputes of this kind the party who was most convinced they were right should always surrender the victory. By which means both would be more forward to give up the cause (Mere Quotes)
Here is the beginning of philosophy: a recognition of the conflicts between men, a search for their cause, a condemnation of mere opinion... and the discovery of a standard of judgement (Mere Quotes)
Jazz today, as always in the past, is a matter of thoughtful creation, not mere unaided instinct (Mere Quotes)
Nothing as mundane as mere evidence can be allowed to threaten a vision so deeply satisfying (Mere Quotes)
It really is appallingly difficult to do something which is complete in every respect, and I think most people are content with mere approximations. Well, my dear friend, I intend to battle on, scrape off and start again (Mere Quotes)
Whatever we read from intense curiosity gives us the model of how we should always read. Plodding along page after page with an equal attention to each word results in attention to mere words (Mere Quotes)
You must not become a mere peddler of words. The thing to learn is to know what people are thinking about, not what they say (Mere Quotes)
Form is sometimes considered a mere spice added by the artist to the representation of objects in order to make it pleasurable (Mere Quotes)
Collecting at its best is very far from mere acquisitiveness; it may become one of the most humanistic of occupations, seeking to illustrate by the assembling of significant reliques, the march of the human spirit in its quest for beauty (Mere Quotes)
We pride ourselves on being the only species that understands the concept of risk, yet we have a confounding habit of worrying about mere possibilities while ignoring probabilities, building barricades against perceived dangers while leaving ourselves exposed to real ones (Mere Quotes)
Minute and elaborately finished pictures never strongly impress the mind, and are but mere curiosities to gratify persons insensible to higher excellencies (Mere Quotes)
Maybe this is a utopian view of art but I do believe that art can function as a vehicle, that it isn’t just a cultural pursuit, something that happens in art galleries. Unless art is linked to experience and the fear and joy of that, it becomes mere icing on the cake (Mere Quotes)
If you stumble at mere believability, what are you living for? Isn’t love hard to believe? (Mere Quotes)
The man of great wealth owes a peculiar obligation to the state because he derives special advantages from the mere existence of government (Mere Quotes)
Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. The joy and moral stimulation of work must no longer be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits (Mere Quotes)
... not mere achievement, but rather the more difficult feat of handling your life efficiently. It means to be a success as a person; controlled, organized, not part of the world’s problems, but part of its cure.... of being creative individuals (Mere Quotes)
Of all forms of tyranny the least attractive and the most vulgar is the tyranny of mere wealth (Mere Quotes)
In truth, I am nothing but a plodding mediocrity - please observe, a plodding mediocrity - for a mere mediocrity does not go very far, but a plodding one gets quite a distance. There is joy in that success, and a distinction can come from courage, fidelity and industry (Mere Quotes)
If the creatures with fur/feathers/fins are our brothers in a lower stage of development then their very weakness and inability to protest, demands that man should refrain from torturing them for the mere possibility of obtaining some knowledge which he believes may be to his own interest (Mere Quotes)
We do not accost a physician as we do any mere nobody; nor a magistrate as we do a private individual. We try to get some advantage from the skill of the one and the position of the other. Walk in the sun, and your shadow will follow you, whether you will or not (Mere Quotes)
