Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained; and the restrainer or reason usurps its place and governs the unwilling (To Be Quotes)
It is curious how there seems to be an instinctive disgust in man for his nearest ancestors and relations. If only Darwin could conscientiously have traced man back to the elephant or the lion or the antelope, how much ridicule and prejudice would have been spared to the doctrine of evolution (To Be Quotes)
The sun and the moon and the stars would have disappeared long ago... Had they happened to be within the reach of predatory human hands (To Be Quotes)
There is held to be no surer test of civilization than the increase per head of the consumption of alcohol and tobacco. Yet alcohol and tobacco are recognizable poisons, so that their consumption has only to be carried far enough to destroy civilization altogether (To Be Quotes)
Long toil and short leisure are part of the heavy price we pay for our North American standard of living. It is reputed to be the highest in the world, and so it should be, for it is bought at an inordinate price (To Be Quotes)
In politics it is necessary either to betray one's country or the electorate. I prefer to betray the electorate (To Be Quotes)
Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so (To Be Quotes)
Women always think that if they tell a man not to be pompous that will shut him up, but I am an old hand at that game. I know that if a man bides his time his moment will come (To Be Quotes)
I think we should see whether we are wise trying to educate everybody to a high standard the way we are trying to do now. There has to be a high level of education so everybody is literate, but whether university education is necessary for everyone is open to question (To Be Quotes)
Happiness is a by-product. It is not a primary product of life. It is a thing which you suddenly realize you have because you're so delighted to be doing something which perhaps has nothing whatever to do with happiness (To Be Quotes)
Are you going to be just kind of a walking monument to a job, or are you going to have some kind of really significant inner life of your own? Because the external things - the job, the house, the this, the that - do not really fill the place inside (To Be Quotes)
I have known far too many university graduates, in this country and in my own, who, as soon as they have received the diploma which declares them to be of Certified Intelligence, put their brains in cold storage and never use them again until they are hauled away to the mortuary (To Be Quotes)
You have to be sure that the Americans will commit all the stupidities they can think of, plus some that are beyond imagination (To Be Quotes)
Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas (To Be Quotes)
This life's dim windows of the soul distorts the heavens from pole to pole and leads you to believe a lie when you see with, not through, the eye (To Be Quotes)
No enterprise can exist for itself alone. It ministers to some great need, it performs some great service, not for itself, but for others; or failing therein, it ceases to be profitable and ceases to exist (To Be Quotes)
I do not really like vacations. I much prefer an occasional day off when I do not feel like working. When I am confronted with a whole week in which I have nothing to do but enjoy myself I do not know where to begin. To me, enjoyment comes fleetingly and unheralded; I cannot determinedly enjoy myself for a whole week at a time (To Be Quotes)
All futurity seems teeming with endless destruction never to be repelled; desperate remorse swallows the present in a quenchless rage (To Be Quotes)
What seems to be, is, to those to whom it seems to be, and is productive of the most dreadful consequences to those to whom it seems to be, even of torments, despair, eternal death (To Be Quotes)
I am really sorry to see my countrymen trouble themselves about politics. If men were wise, the most arbitrary princes could not hurt them. If they are not wise, the freest government is compelled to be a tyranny. Princes appear to me to be fools. Houses of Commons and Houses of Lords appear to me to be fools; they seem to me to be something else besides human life (To Be Quotes)
We draw our Presidents from the people. It is a wholesome thing for them to return to the people. I came from them. I wish to be one of them again (To Be Quotes)
Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company (To Be Quotes)
Christmas is not a time or a season but a state of mind. To cherish peace and good will, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas (To Be Quotes)
Nothing is easier than spending the public money. It does not appear to belong to anybody. The temptation is overwhelming to bestow it on somebody (To Be Quotes)
Over grown military establishments are under any form of government inauspicious to liberty, and are to be regarded as particularly hostile to republican liberty (To Be Quotes)
I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth, environmental protection, improvements in our educational system (To Be Quotes)
There is a destiny which has the control of our actions, not to be resisted by the strongest efforts of human nature (To Be Quotes)
Unhappy it is though to reflect, that a brother's sword has been sheathed in a brother's breast, and that, the once happy and peaceful plains of America are either to be drenched with blood, or inhabited by slaves. Sad alternative! But can a virtuous man hesitate in his choice? (To Be Quotes)
