Famous quotes containing the words mission, vision and/or statements:

    The mission of men there seems to be, like so many busy demons, to drive the forest all out of the country, from every solitary beaver swamp and mountain-side, as soon as possible.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Would not some lightning flash of vision sear people’s consciousness into life again? What was the good of stopping the war if armies continued?
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    Dogmatic theological statements are neither logical propositions nor poetic utterances. They are “shaggy dog” stories; they have a point, but he who tries too hard to get it will miss it.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
