Famous quotes containing the words human and/or activity:

    “A man at work, making something which he feels will exist because he is working at it and wills it, is exercising the energies of his mind and soul as well as of his body. Memory and imagination help him as he works. Not only his own thoughts, but the thoughts of the men of past ages guide his hands; and, as part of the human race, he creates. If we work thus we shall be men, and our days will be happy and eventful.”
    —William Morris (1834–1896)

    “Moderation is the feebleness and sloth of the soul, whereas ambition is the warmth and activity of it.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
