Famous quotes containing the word approaches:

    Someone approaches to say his life is ruined
    and to fall down at your feet
    and pound his head upon the sidewalk.
    David Ignatow (b. 1914)

    A politician is a statesman who approaches every question with an open mouth.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    The Oriental philosophy approaches easily loftier themes than the modern aspires to; and no wonder if it sometimes prattle about them. It only assigns their due rank respectively to Action and Contemplation, or rather does full justice to the latter. Western philosophers have not conceived of the significance of Contemplation in their sense.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
