Famous quotes containing the word acts:

    I have desired that all my works and acts may be according to his will.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    This is that which we call Character,—a reserved force which acts directly by presence, and without means.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    To the man who cherishes a secret in his breast, there is a still greater secret unexplored. Our most indifferent acts may be a matter for secrecy, but whatever we do with the utmost truthfulness and integrity, by virtue of its pureness, must be transparent as light.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
