Famous quotes containing the words important and/or part:
“What’s important is promising something to the people, not actually keeping those promises.... The people have always lived on hope alone.”
—Hermann Broch (1886–1951)
“In the most worn, pedantic, introverted self-tormenter’s life, the greatest part is incalculable by him, unforeseen, unimaginable, and must be, until he can take himself up by his own ears. What am I? What has my will done to make me that I am? Nothing. I have been floated into this thought, this hour, this connection of events, by secret currents of might and mind, and my ingenuity and wilfulness have not thwarted, have not aided to an appreciable degree.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
