Active Command

Famous quotes containing the words active and/or command:

    How often must I repeat, that I know or am conscious of my own being; and that I myself am not my ideas, but somewhat else, a thinking, active principle that perceives, knows, wills, and operates about ideas?

    Do amble amiably here, O God,
    One of the neat ones in your awkward squad.
