Famous quotes containing the word attempt:

    “Religion, oh, just another of those numerous failures resulting from an attempt to popularize art.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “The conduct of God who disposes all things kindly, is to put religion into the mind by reason, and into the heart by grace. But to attempt to put it into the mind and heart by force and threats is not to put religion there, but terror.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “Ulysses ... is a dogged attempt to cover the universe with mud, an inverted Victorianism, an attempt to make crossness and dirt succeed where sweetness and light failed, a simplification of the human character in the interests of Hell.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
