Famous quotes containing the words common and/or man:

    There is a plain distinction to be made betwixt pleasure and happiness. For tho’ there can be no happiness without pleasure—yet the converse of the proposition will not hold true.—We are so made, that from the common gratifications of our appetites, and the impressions of a thousand objects, we snatch the one, like a transient gleam, without being suffered to taste the other.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    One man isn’t any better than another, not because they are equal, but because they are intrinsically other, that there is no term of comparison.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
