Text Quotes
Great is the good fortune of a state in which the citizens have a moderate and sufficient property  (Moderate Quotes) Since we are mortal, friendships are best kept to a moderate level, rather than sharing the very depths of our souls  (Moderate Quotes) Life has been compared to a race, but the allusion improves by observing, that the most swift are usually the least manageable and the most likely to stray from the course. Great abilities have always been less serviceable to the possessors than moderate ones  (Moderate Quotes) Just as the largest library, badly arranged, is not so useful as a very moderate one that is well arranged, so the greatest amount of knowledge, if not elaborated by our own thoughts, is worth much less than a far smaller volume that has been abundantly and repeatedly thought over  (Moderate Quotes) I believe that it may be normal, healthy, and even productive to experience mild to moderate depression from time to time as part of the variable emotional spectrum, either as an appropriate response to situations or as a way of turning inward and mentally chewing over problems to find solutions  (Moderate Quotes) Happiness, whether consisting in pleasure or virtue, or both, is more often found with those who are highly cultivated in their minds and in their character, and have only a moderate share of external goods, than among those who possess external goods to a useless extent but are deficient in higher qualities  (Moderate Quotes) If duties are too high, they lessen the consumption; the collection is eluded; and the product to the treasury is not so great as when they are confined within proper and moderate bounds. This forms a complete barrier against any material oppression of the citizens by taxes of this class, and is itself a natural limitation of the power of imposing them  (Moderate Quotes) Those words, temperate and moderate, are words either of political cowardice, or of cunning, or seduction. A thing, moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper, is always a virtue; but moderation in principle, is a species of vice  (Moderate Quotes) We all know that men in moderate circumstances can have just as comfortable houses as the richest, just as comfortable clothing, just as good food. They can see just as fine paintings, just as marvelous statues, and they can hear just as good music. They can attend the same theaters and the same operas. They can enjoy the same sunshine, and above all, can love and be loved just as well as kings and millionaires  (Moderate Quotes) I am thankful for small mercies. I compared notes with one of my friends who expect everything of the universe, and is disappointed when anything is less than the best, and I found that I begin at the other extreme, expecting nothing, and am always full of thanks for moderate good... If we will take the good we find,... we shall have heaping measures  (Moderate Quotes) Moderate giftedness has been made worthless by the printing press and radio and television and satellites and all that. A moderately gifted person who would have been a community treasure a thousand years ago has to give up, has to go into some other line of work, since modern communications put him or her into daily competition with nothing but world’s champions  (Moderate Quotes) The objects that are of moderate energy, like our sun or most of the stars that we see in the night sky with the naked eye, are objects in which relatively moderate energy processes are taking place  (Moderate Quotes) I don’t cut down on food just for myself, but for society. I wish to inspire some sincere person, even only for one day, to please be moderate in their food and drink  (Moderate Quotes) You must have no dependence on your own genius. If you have great talents, industry will improve them; if you have but moderate abilities, industry will supply their deficiency  (Moderate Quotes) We are now forming a republican government. Real liberty is neither found in despotism or the extremes of democracy, but in moderate governments  (Moderate Quotes) Such is the nature of crowds: either they are humble and servile or arrogant and dominating. They are incapable of making moderate use of freedom, which is the middle course, or of keeping it  (Moderate Quotes) In art nothing worth doing can be done without genius; in science even a very moderate capacity can contribute to a supreme achievement  (Moderate Quotes) Let all your views in life be directed to a solid, however moderate, independence; without it no man can be happy, nor even honest  (Moderate Quotes) It is better to excel in any single art than to arrive only at mediocrity in several, so moderate skill in several is to be preferred where one cannot attain to perfection in any  (Moderate Quotes) Nothing in the world is more haughty than a man of moderate capacity when once raised to power  (Moderate Quotes) There is nothing which continues longer than a moderate fortune; nothing of which one sees sooner the end than a large fortune  (Moderate Quotes) Men’s happiness springs mainly from moderate troubles, which afford the mind a healthful stimulus, and are followed by a reaction which produces a cheerful flow of spirits  (Moderate Quotes) Men leave their riches either to their kindred or their friends, and moderate portions prosper best in both  (Moderate Quotes) The man who loves the golden mean is safe from the misery of a wretched hovel, and moderate in his desires, cares not for a luxurious palace, the subject of envy  (Moderate Quotes) Take this at least, this last advice, my son: Keep a stiff rein, and move but gently on: The coursers of themselves will run too fast, your art must be to moderate their haste  (Moderate Quotes) Every moderate drinker could abandon the intoxicating cup if he would; every inebriate would if he could  (Moderate Quotes) Malice and hatred are very fretting and vexatious, and apt to make our minds sore and uneasy; but he that can moderate these affections will find ease in his mind  (Moderate Quotes) It is certainly much easier wholly to decline a passion than to keep it within just bounds and measures; and that which few can moderate almost anybody may prevent  (Moderate Quotes) Moderate exercise every day will impart strength to the muscles, which without exercise become flabby and enfeebled  (Moderate Quotes) With two people and luggage on board she draws four inches of water. Two canoe paddles will move her along at a speed reasonable enough in moderate currents  (Moderate Quotes)
