Deliberate

Famous quotes containing the word deliberate:

    The deliberate consciousness of America so fair and smooth-spoken, and the under-consciousness so devilish. Destroy! destroy! destroy! hums the under-consciousness. Love and produce! Love and produce! cackles the upper-consciousness.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    the slow passion
    to that deliberate progress.
    Thom Gunn (b. 1929)

    One would think, that a deliberate and practical denial of its authority was the only offence never contemplated by government; else, why has it not assigned its definite, its suitable and proportionate, penalty?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
