Famous quotes containing the word finds:

    The art of motherhood involves much silent, unobtrusive self-denial, an hourly devotion which finds no detail too minute.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    Once one is caught up into the material world not one person in ten thousand finds the time to form literary taste, to examine the validity of philosophic concepts for himself, or to form what, for lack of a better phrase, I might call the wise and tragic sense of life.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    If we cannot accept the importance of the world, which considers itself important, if in the midst of that world our laughter finds no echo, we have but one choice: to take the world as a whole and make it the object of our game; to turn it into a toy.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
