Importance

Famous quotes containing the word importance:

“People without imagination are beginning to tire of the importance attached to comfort, to culture, to leisure, to all that destroys imagination.

—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)

“I am not sure that it is of the first importance that you should be happy. Many an unhappy man has been of deep service to himself and to the world.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

“We ought to esteem it of the greatest importance that the fictions which children first hear should be adapted in the most perfect manner to the promotion of virtue.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
