Involved

Famous quotes containing the word involved:

    Do you suppose that sacrifice is the hallmark of moral action?—Just stop to consider whether sacrifice is not involved in every action that is done with deliberation, the worst as well as the best.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    University degrees are a bit like adultery: you may not want to get involved with that sort of thing, but you don’t want to be thought incapable.
    Peter, Sir Imbert (b. 1933)

    Whilst Marx turned the Hegelian dialectic outwards, making it an instrument with which he could interpret the facts of history and so arrive at an objective science which insists on the translation of theory into action, Kierkegaard, on the other hand, turned the same instruments inwards, for the examination of his own soul or psychology, arriving at a subjective philosophy which involved him in the deepest pessimism and despair of action.
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
