Famous quotes containing the word content:

    Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it will content your spirit for the moment.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    To be content with life—or to live merrily, rather—all that is required is that we bestow on all things only a fleeting, superficial glance; the more thoughtful we become the more earnest we grow.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    A person of mature years and ripe development, who is expecting nothing from literature but the corroboration and renewal of past ideas, may find satisfaction in a lucidity so complete as to occasion no imaginative excitement, but young and ambitious students are not content with it. They seek the excitement because they are capable of the growth that it accompanies.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
