Confront

Famous quotes containing the word confront:

    What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    Whenever we confront an unbridled desire we are surely in the presence of a tragedy-in-the-making.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    Marvelous Truth, confront us
    at every turn,
    in every guise,
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
