Decisions

Famous quotes containing the word decisions:

    I really cannot know whether I am or am not the Genius you are pleased to call me, but I am very willing to put up with the mistake, if it be one. It is a title dearly enough bought by most men, to render it endurable, even when not quite clearly made out, which it never can be till the Posterity, whose decisions are merely dreams to ourselves, has sanctioned or denied it, while it can touch us no further.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions ... but by iron and blood.
    Otto Von Bismarck (1815–1898)

    You have no idea how promising the world begins to look once you have decided to have it all for yourself. And how much healthier your decisions are once they become entirely selfish.
    Anita Brookner (b. 1938)
