Famous quotes containing the word habits:
“In sum, all actions and habits are to be esteemed good or evil by their causes and usefulness in reference to the commonwealth, and not by their mediocrity, nor by their being commended. For several men praise several customs, and, contrarily, what one calls vice, another calls virtue, as their present affections lead them.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“A man may have no bad habits and have worse.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Good habits formed at youth make all the difference.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
