Agree

Famous quotes containing the word agree:

    I agree that we should work and prolong the functions of life as far as we can, and hope that Death may find me planting my cabbages, but indifferent to him and still more to the unfinished state of my garden.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Clarity is of no importance because nobody listens and
    nobody knows what you mean no matter what you mean,
    nor how clearly you mean what you mean. But if you
    have vitality enough of knowing enough of what you
    mean, somebody and sometime and sometimes a great
    many will have to realize that you know what you mean
    and so they will agree that you mean what you know,
    what you know you mean, which is as near as anybody
    can come to understanding any one.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    The majority is never right. Never, I tell you! That’s one of these lies in society that no free and intelligent man can help rebelling against. Who are the people that make up the biggest proportion of the population—the intelligent ones or the fools? I think we can agree it’s the fools, no matter where you go in this world, it’s the fools that form the overwhelming majority.
    Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
