Attended

Famous quotes containing the word attended:

    Philosophy ... does not talk, but write, or, when it comes personally before an audience, lecture or read; and therefore it must be read to-morrow, or a thousand years hence. But the talker must naturally be attended to at once; he does not talk on without an audience; the winds do not long bear the sound of his voice.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The greatest dangers have their allurements, if the want of success is likely to be attended with a degree of glory. Middling dangers are horrid, when the loss of reputation is the inevitable consequence of ill success.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    The Christian religion not only was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be believed by any reasonable person without one.

    David Hume (1711–1776)
