Mode Offers

Famous quotes containing the words mode and/or offers:

“Happiness is a matter of one’s most ordinary everyday mode of consciousness being busy and lively and unconcerned with self. To be damned is for one’s ordinary everyday mode of consciousness to be unremitting agonising preoccupation with self.”
—Iris Murdoch (b. 1919)

“In love, there is always one who kisses and one who offers the cheek.”
—French proverb.
