Text Quotes
Firmness in enduring and exertion is a character I always wish to possess. I have always despised the whining yelp of complaint and cowardly resolve  (Possess Quotes) What I am going to write is the last of what I have to say. I will say that literature is the only consciousness we possess and that its role as consciousness must inform us of our ability to comprehend the hideous danger of nuclear power  (Possess Quotes) Before we set our hearts too much upon anything, let us examine how happy they are, who already possess it  (Possess Quotes) We really have to understand the person we want to love. If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love  (Possess Quotes) Think you of the fact that a deaf person cannot hear. Then, what deafness may we not all possess? What senses do we lack that we cannot see and cannot hear another world all around us?  (Possess Quotes) No matter how full a reservoir of maxims one may possess, and no matter how good one’s sentiments may be, if one has not taken advantage of every concrete opportunity to act, one’s character may remain entirely unaffected for the better  (Possess Quotes) Whatever talents I possess may suddenly diminish or suddenly increase. I can with ease become an ordinary fool. I may be one now. But it doesn’t do to upset one’s own vanity  (Possess Quotes) It is not from space that I must seek my dignity, but from the government of my thought. I shall have no more if I possess worlds. By space the universe encompasses and swallows me up like an atom; by thought I comprehend the world  (Possess Quotes) That fellow seems to me to possess but one idea, and that is a wrong one  (Possess Quotes) Everything we possess that is not necessary for life or happiness becomes a burden, and scarcely a day passes that we do not add to it  (Possess Quotes) If the design of the building be originally bad, the only virtue it can ever possess will be signs of antiquity  (Possess Quotes) What, in fact, is a novel but a universe in which action is endowed with form, where final words are pronounced, where people possess one another completely, and where life assumes the aspect of destiny?  (Possess Quotes) Men of genius are far more abundant than is supposed. In fact, to appreciate thoroughly the work of what we call genius, is to possess all the genius by which the work was produced  (Possess Quotes) Though men now possess the power to dominate and exploit every corner of the natural world, nothing in that fact implies that they have the right or the need to do so  (Possess Quotes) What is it we all seek for in an election? To answer its real purposes, you must first possess the means of knowing the fitness of your man; and then you must retain some hold upon him by personal obligation or dependence  (Possess Quotes) True debauchery is liberating because it creates no obligations. In it you possess only yourself, hence it remains the favorite pastime of the great lovers of their own person  (Possess Quotes) Enjoy what thou has inherited from thy sires if thou wouldn’t really possess it. What we employ and use is never an oppressive burden; what the moment brings forth, that only can it profit by  (Possess Quotes) The pith of conversation does not consist in exhibiting your own superior knowledge on matters of small consequence, but in enlarging, improving and correcting the information you possess by the authority of others  (Possess Quotes) To possess a good cognomen is a long way on the road of success in life  (Possess Quotes) If absolute truth belongs to anyone in this world, it certainly does not belong to the man or party that claims to possess it  (Possess Quotes) I am no lover of disorder and doubt as such. Rather I fear to lose truth by the pretension to possess it already wholly  (Possess Quotes) We will not be dictated to by men with less intelligence, energy, initiative and ambition than we ourselves possess  (Possess Quotes) If you really want to possess a woman, you must think like her, and the first thing to do is win over her soul. The rest, that sweet, soft wrapping that steals away your senses and your virtue, is a bonus  (Possess Quotes) We are not our own any more than what we possess is our own. We did not make ourselves, we cannot be supreme over ourselves. We are not our own masters  (Possess Quotes) When you possess great treasures within you and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed  (Possess Quotes) Arriving at each new city, the traveler finds again a past of his that he did not know he had: the foreignness of what you no longer are or no longer possess lies in wait for you in foreign, unpossessed places  (Possess Quotes) Only a man of integrity can possess the virtue of honesty, since only the faking of one’s consciousness can permit the faking of existence  (Possess Quotes) Man cannot possess anything as long as he fears death. But to him who does not fear it, everything belongs. If there was no suffering, man would not know his limits, would not know himself  (Possess Quotes) In every country where independence has taken the place of liberty, the first desire of a manly heart is to possess a weapon which at once renders him capable of defence or attack, and, by rendering its owner fearsome, makes him feared  (Possess Quotes) Heaven forbid that we should believe in such a way as not to accept or seek reasons, since we could not even believe if we did not possess rational souls  (Possess Quotes)
