Graphium Antiphates - Habits

Famous quotes containing the word habits:

“Almost always tradition is nothing but a record and a machine-made imitation of the habits that our ancestors created. The average conservative is a slave to the most incidental and trivial part of his forefathers’ glory—to the archaic formula which happened to express their genius or the eighteenth-century contrivance by which for a time it was served.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

“Always too eager for the future, we
Pick up bad habits of expectancy.
Something is always approaching; every day
Till then we say....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“Good habits formed at youth make all the difference.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
