Famous quotes containing the word purpose:

    Of what significance the light of day, if it is not the reflection of an inward dawn?—to what purpose is the veil of night withdrawn, if the morning reveals nothing to the soul? It is merely garish and glaring.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The purpose of playing, whose end, both at the first and now,
    was and is, to hold as ‘twere the mirror up to nature: to show
    virtue her feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and
    body of the time his form and pressure.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I want that glib and oily art
    To speak and purpose not, since what I well intend,
    I’ll do’t before I speak.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
