Famous quotes containing the word feeling:

    “Old age is far more than white hair, wrinkles, the feeling that it is too late and the game finished, that the stage belongs to the rising generations. The true evil is not the weakening of the body, but the indifference of the soul.”
    —André Maurois (1885–1967)

    “We are all instruments endowed with feeling and memory. Our senses are so many strings that are struck by surrounding objects and that also frequently strike themselves.”
    —Denis Diderot (1713–84)

    “since feeling is first
    who pays any attention
    to the syntax of things
    will never wholly kiss you;”
