Considered

Famous quotes containing the word considered:

“A writer who writes, “I am alone” ... can be considered rather comical. It is comical for a man to recognize his solitude by addressing a reader and by using methods that prevent the individual from being alone. The word alone is just as general as the word bread. To pronounce it is to summon to oneself the presence of everything the word excludes.”
—Maurice Blanchot (b. 1907)

“If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.”
—Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863)

“I have always considered it as treason against the great republic of human nature, to make any man’s virtues the means of deceiving him.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
