Famous quotes containing the words aims and/or motto:

    We are often reminded that if there were bestowed on us the wealth of Crsus, our aims must still be the same, and our means essentially the same.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I always say, my motto is “Art for my sake.” If I want to write, I write—and if I don’t want to, I won’t. The difficulty is to find exactly the form one’s passion—work is produced by passion with me ... Mwants to take.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
