Text Quotes
We have become a conservative country, despite our worldwide reputation for seeking novelty, in that we are unable to envisage alternative futures for ourselves  (Uta Quotes) One should seek for the salutary in the unpleasant; if it is there, it is after all nectar. One should seek for the deceitful in the pleasant; if it is there, it is after all poison  (Uta Quotes) The question of good and evil remains in irremediable chaos for those who seek to fathom it in reality.

Land, monuments, nations, all fall, but the noise remains, and will reach to other generations  (Uta Quotes) It was...

We believe in obeying the law  (Uta Quotes) The cultivation of literary pursuits forms the basis of all sciences, and in their perfection consist the reputation and prosperity of kingdoms  (Uta Quotes) A just person knows how to secure his own reputation without blemishing another’s by exposing his faults  (Uta Quotes) Profaneness is a brutal vice. He who indulges in it is no gentleman, I care not what his stamp may be in society; I care not what clothes he wears, or what culture he boasts  (Uta Quotes) Well was it said by a man of sagacity that dancing was a sort of privileged and reputable folly, and that the best way to be convinced of this was to close the ears and judge of it by the eyes alone  (Uta Quotes) It is almost always the unhappiness of a victorious disputant to destroy his own authority by claiming too many consequences, or diffusing his proposition to an indefensible extent  (Uta Quotes) To regard the excesses of the passions as maladies has so salutary an effect that this idea renders all moral sermons useless  (Uta Quotes) The pain of dispute exceeds by much its utility. All disputation makes the mind deaf; and when people are deaf I am dumb  (Uta Quotes) Time, the cradle of hope, but the grave of ambition, is the stern corrector of fools, but the salutary counselor of the wise, bringing all they dread to the one, and all they desire to the other  (Uta Quotes) The best painters, as they progress in reputation and towards perfection, are found to dispense more and more with the technique of the art, for simpler methods. Simplicity never fails to charm  (Uta Quotes) Plutarch would rather we should applaud his judgment than commend his knowledge, and would rather leave us with an appetite to read more than glutted with that we have already read  (Uta Quotes) He allows very readily, that the eyes and footsteps of the master are things most salutary to the land  (Uta Quotes) Nothing so uncertain as general reputation. A man injures me from humor, passion, or interest; hates me because he has injured me; and speaks ill of me because he hates me  (Uta Quotes) He who does most to cure woman of her weakness, her frivolity, and her servility will likewise at the same stroke do most to cure man of his brutality, his selfishness and his sensuality  (Uta Quotes) The precipitancy of disputation, and the stir and noise of passions that usually attend it, must needs be prejudicial to verity  (Uta Quotes) The way to avoid the imputation of impudence is not to be ashamed of what we do, but never to do what we ought to be ashamed of  (Uta Quotes) The world sees only the reflection of merit; therefore when you come to know a really great man intimately, you may as often find him above as below his reputation  (Uta Quotes) Success produces confidence, confidence relaxes industry, and negligence ruins that reputation which accuracy had raised  (Uta Quotes) The two chief things that give a man reputation in counsel, are the opinion of his honesty, and the opinion of his wisdom; the authority of those two will persuade  (Uta Quotes) A good name is properly that reputation of virtue that every man may challenge as his right and due in the opinions of others, till he has made forfeit of it by the viciousness of his actions  (Uta Quotes) Irresolution and mutability are often the faults of men whose views are wide, and whose imagination is vigorous and excursive  (Uta Quotes) When a man has once forfeited the reputation of his integrity, he is set fast, and nothing will then serve his turn, neither truth nor falsehood  (Uta Quotes) It carries too great an imputation of ignorance, lightness or folly for men to quit and renounce their former tenets presently upon the offer of an argument which they cannot immediately answer  (Uta Quotes)
