Famous quotes containing the words james t, james and/or brand:

    It’s a naïve domestic Burgundy without any breeding, but I think you’ll be amused by its presumption.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    Habit is thus the enormous fly-wheel of society, its most precious conservative agent. It alone is what keeps us all within the bounds of ordinance, and saves the children of fortune from the envious uprisings of the poor.
    —William James (1843–1916)

    Happiness is always a by-product. It is probably a matter of temperament, and for anything I know it may be glandular. But it is not something that can be demanded from life, and if you are not happy you had better stop worrying about it and see what treasures you can pluck from your own brand of unhappiness.
    Robertson Davies (b. 1913)
