Conceal

Famous quotes containing the word conceal:

    If your morals make you dreary, depend upon it they are wrong. I do not say “give them up,” for they may be all you have; but conceal them like a vice, lest they should spoil the lives of better and simpler people.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Is it possible, after all, that spite of bricks and shaven faces, this world we live in is brimmed with wonders, and I and all mankind, beneath our garbs of common-placeness, conceal enigmas that the stars themselves, and perhaps the highest seraphim can not resolve?
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Don’t join the book burners. Don’t think you are going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed.
    Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)
