It will always be considered a praiseworthy undertaking to urge the most obstinate and incredulous to abide by the principles that impel men to live in society. There are, therefore, three distinct classes of vice and virtue: the religious, the natural, and the political. These three classes should never be in contradiction with one another.  (Obstinate Quotes) The two commonest mistakes in judgement ... are, the confounding of shyness with arrogance - a very common mistake indeed - and the not understanding that an obstinate nature exists in a perpetual struggle with itself.  (Obstinate Quotes) But he had only received that sort of answer usually given by those who are more obstinate in following their own course, than strong in justifying it  (Obstinate Quotes) Real success and accomplishment, at whatever it is you are passionate about, requires real work. Real sacrifice. Real disappointment. Real failure. And it requires the ability to scrape your sorry ass up off the floor, stumble to your feet, wipe the rivulets of watery drool from your face, and do it again, like an obstinate toddler running against the wall with his head in a bucket  (Obstinate Quotes) A mind is accustomed to mathematical deduction, when confronted with the faulty foundations of astrology, resists a long, long time, like an obstinate mule, until compelled by beating and curses to put its foot into that dirty puddle  (Obstinate Quotes) The passion of hatred is so long lived and so obstinate a malady that the surest sign of death in a sick person is their desire for reconciliation  (Obstinate Quotes) What is exciting is not for one person to be stronger than the other. But for two people to have met their match and yet they are equally as stubborn, as obstinate, as passionate, as crazy as the other  (Obstinate Quotes) My great mistake, the fault for which I can't forgive myself, is that one day I ceased my obstinate pursuit of my own individuality  (Obstinate Quotes) I was a peaceful sedentary man, a lover of a quiet life, with no appetite for perils and commotions. But I was beginning to realise that I was very obstinate  (Obstinate Quotes) True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance  (Obstinate Quotes) Every day that we allow ourselves to take things for granted, every day that we allow some little physical infirmity or worldly worry to come between us and our obstinate, indignant, defiant exultation, we are weakening our genius for life  (Obstinate Quotes) The dynamic element in my philosophy, taken as a whole, can be seen as an obstinate and untiring battle against the spirit of abstraction  (Obstinate Quotes) For the life of her, she couldn’t understand how such an obstinate, boneheaded chauvinist could make her pulse race and her insides turn to jelly  (Obstinate Quotes) It is right that we should stand by and act on our principles; but not right to hold them in obstinate blindness, or retain them when proved to be erroneous  (Obstinate Quotes) I have never observed other effects of whipping than to render boys more cowardly, or more willfully obstinate  (Obstinate Quotes) Discipline is, in a manner, nothing else but the art of inspiring the soldiers with greater fear of their officers than of the enemy. This fear has often the effect of courage: but it cannot prevail against the fierce and obstinate valor of people animated by fanaticism, or warm love of their country  (Obstinate Quotes) You’re obstinate, pliant, merry, morose, all at once. For me there’s no living with you, or without you  (Obstinate Quotes) I like mountains, always have done. Big obstinate bits of rock sticking up where they’re not wanted and getting in folk’s way. Great. Climbing them is a different matter altogether though. I hate that  (Obstinate Quotes) Innovations, free thinking is blowing like a storm; those that stand in front of it, ignorant scholars like you, false scientists, perverse conservatives, obstinate goats, resisting mules are being crushed under the weight of these innovations. You are nothing but ants standing in front of the giants; nothing but chicks trying to challenge roaring volcanoes!  (Obstinate Quotes) Passions often produce their contraries: avarice sometimes leads to prodigality, and prodigality to avarice; we are often obstinate through weakness and daring through timidity  (Obstinate Quotes) Human longings are perversely obstinate; and to the man whose mouth is watering for a peach, it is of no use to offer the largest vegetable marrow  (Obstinate Quotes) Strong mental agitation and disturbance was no novelty to him, even before his late sufferings. It never is, to obstinate and sullen natures; for they struggle hard to be such  (Obstinate Quotes) Many are obstinate with regard to the pathway once they have set upon it, few with regard to the goal  (Obstinate Quotes) The liberally educated person is one who is able to resist the easy and preferred answers, not because he is obstinate but because he knows others worthy of consideration  (Obstinate Quotes) I remain convinced that obstinate addiction to ordinary language in our private thoughts is one of the main obstacles to progress in philosophy  (Obstinate Quotes)
