Famous quotes containing the word caution:
“... your spiritual teachers caution you against enquiry—tell you not to read certain books; not to listen to certain people; to beware of profane learning; to submit your reason, and to receive their doctrines for truths. Such advice renders them suspicious counsellors.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
“Have I not walked without an upward look
Of caution under stars....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“I cannot say to a person who suffers injustice, “Wait.” Perhaps you can. I can’t. And having decided that I cannot urge caution I must stand with him.”
—Sandra “Casey” Cason (b. c. 1939)
