Famous quotes containing the word feeling:

    Feeling without judgement is a washy draught indeed; but judgement untempered by feeling is too bitter and husky a morsel for human deglutition.
    Charlotte Brontë (1816–55)

    Your good mother tells me you are feeling very badly in your new situation. Allow me to assure you it is a perfect certainty that you will, very soon, feel better—quite happy—if you only stick to the resolution you have taken to procure a military education. I am older than you, have felt badly myself, and know, what I tell you is true. Adhere to your purpose and you will soon feel as well as you ever did.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Newspapers always excite curiosity. No one ever lays one down without a feeling of disappointment.
    Charles Lamb (1775–1834)
