Text Quotes
By liberty of conscience, we understand not only a mere liberty of the mind, in believing or disbelieving this or that principle or doctrine; but the exercise of ourselves in a visible way of worship, upon our believing it to be indispensably required at our hands, that if we neglect it for fear of favor of any mortal man, we sin and incur divine wrath  (Mere Quotes) Perhaps there is no other knowing than the mere competence of the act. If at the heart of one’s being, there is no self to which one ought to be true, then sincerity is simply nerve; it lies in the unabashed vigor of the pretense. But pretense is only pretense when it is assumed that the act is not true to the agent. Find the agent  (Mere Quotes) Consumerism has led us to become used to an excess and daily waste of food, to which, at times, we are no longer able to give a just value, which goes well beyond mere economic parameters. We should all remember, however, that throwing food away is like stealing from the tables of the the poor, the hungry!  (Mere Quotes) The labor movement was the principal force that transformed misery and despair into hope and progress. Out of its bold struggles, economic and social reform gave birth to unemployment insurance, old age pensions, government relief for the destitute, and, above all, new wage levels that meant not mere survival but a tolerable life  (Mere Quotes) If the concept of consciousness were to fall to science, what would happen to our sense of moral agency and free will? If conscious experience were reduced somehow to mere matter in motion, what would happen to our appreciation of love and pain and dreams and joy? If conscious human beings were just animated material objects, how could anything we do to them be right or wrong?  (Mere Quotes) The aristocracy are not the farmers who work the land, and raise the produce, but are the mere consumers of the rent; and when compared with the active world, are the drones, a seraglio of males, who neither collect the honey nor form the hive, but exist only for lazy enjoyment  (Mere Quotes) The powers, aspirations, and mission of man are such as to raise the study of his origin and nature, inevitably and by the very necessity of the case, from the mere physiological to the psychological stage of scientific operations  (Mere Quotes) While you are experimenting, do not remain content with the surface of things. Don’t become a mere recorder of facts, but try to penetrate the mystery of their origin  (Mere Quotes) All good performance pieces have some philosophical validity. That’s the difference between mere theater and performance art  (Mere Quotes) To express to you in mere words, our personal feelings on this occasion you must know to be impossible, and particularly so for one who normally has to describe only things outside himself  (Mere Quotes) The rest is a mere matter of detail, to be settled with judgment, discretion, and caution  (Mere Quotes) Experience alone can give a final answer. The knowledge gained in a few years by a commission of the kind suggested would be worth more than volumes of mere assertions and contradictions  (Mere Quotes) In like manner, if I let myself believe anything on insufficient evidence, there may be no great harm done by the mere belief; it may be true after all, or I may never have occasion to exhibit it in outward acts  (Mere Quotes) He has a number of curious facts in illustration of the power of mere goodness to protect against outrage  (Mere Quotes) The universe is so well balanced that the mere fact that you have a problem also serves as a sign that there is a solution  (Mere Quotes) A great novel is concerned primarily with the interior lives of its characters as they respond to the inconvenient narratives that fate imposes on them. Movie adaptations of these monumental fictions often fail because they become mere exercises in interior decoration  (Mere Quotes) I will burn, but this is a mere event. We shall continue our discussion in eternity  (Mere Quotes) The roads are filled with armed robbers, and murders for mere plunder are of daily occurrence  (Mere Quotes) Freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter mush. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order  (Mere Quotes) As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being  (Mere Quotes) A system of morality which is based on relative emotional values is a mere illusion, a thoroughly vulgar conception which has nothing sound in it and nothing true  (Mere Quotes) So we do have our exits and our entrances and we are perhaps mere, but I think if one keep a certain joyousness in life which should be in playing, then good for one, but it’s slightly more serious than that  (Mere Quotes) Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter  (Mere Quotes) Things which have most hold on us, as the concealment of our few possessions, are often a mere nothing. It is a nothing which our imagination magnifies into a mountain  (Mere Quotes) A mere copier of nature can never produce any thing great, can never raise and enlarge the conceptions, or warm the heart of the spectator  (Mere Quotes) Error is not a mere accident of an untrained intellect, but a necessary stage or feature or moment of the expression of the truth  (Mere Quotes) How shallow is this mere that gleams! Its depth of blue is from the skies; and from a distant sun the dreams and lovely light within your eyes  (Mere Quotes) True readers... Are ready to go through a whole volume, if there be but hope of finding in it a single genuine thought or the mere suggestion even of a truth which has some fresh application to life  (Mere Quotes) Cricket has more in it than mere efficiency. There is something called the spirit of cricket, which cannot be defined  (Mere Quotes) And when did mere preaching do any good? Put something in the place of these things. Fill the vacuum of the mind  (Mere Quotes)
