Famous quotes containing the word sort:

    When man has nothing but his will to assert—even his good-will—it is always bullying. Bolshevism is one sort of bullying, capitalism another: and liberty is a change of chains.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    I’ve spoiled Jemima in more ways than one.
    She’s got so she turns in at every house
    As if she had some sort of curvature,
    No matter if I have no errand there.
    She thinks I’m sociable. I maybe am.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    You say your own soul supplies you with some sort of an idea or image of God. But at the same time you acknowledge you have, properly speaking, no idea of your own soul. You even affirm that spirits are a sort of beings altogether different from ideas. Consequently that no idea can be like a spirit. We have therefore no idea of any spirit.
    George Berkeley (1685–1753)
