Resolution/places

Famous quotes containing the words resolution and/or places:

    The passions do very often give birth to others of a nature most contrary to their own. Thus avarice sometimes brings forth prodigality, and prodigality avarice; a man’s resolution is very often the effect of levity, and his boldness that of cowardice and fear.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    When our hatred is too fierce, it places us beneath those we hate.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
