Famous quotes containing the words reasons for and/or reasons:

    The more one analyses people, the more all reasons for analysis disappear. Sooner or later one comes to that dreadful universal thing called human nature.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    The reasons you allege do more conduce
    To the hot passion of distempered blood
    Than to make up a free determination
    ‘Twixt right and wrong; for pleasure and revenge
    Have ears more deaf than adders to the voice
    Of any true decision.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
