Famous quotes containing the word act:
“The fact is that a man who wants to act virtuously in every way necessarily comes to grief among so many who are not virtuous.”
—Niccolò Machiavelli (14691527)
“For I choose that my remembrances of him should be pleasing, affecting, religious. I will love him as a glorified friend, after the free way of friendship, and not pay him a stiff sign of respect, as men do to those whom they fear. A passage read from his discourses, a moving provocation to works like his, any act or meeting which tends to awaken a pure thought, a flow of love, an original design of virtue, I call a worthy, a true commemoration.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
