Exclusive

Famous quotes containing the word exclusive:

    Can words such as Orthodox, Jew, or Catholic really express some sort of exclusive personal virtues or merits?
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    When we try in good faith to believe in materialism, in the exclusive reality of the physical, we are asking our selves to step aside; we are disavowing the very realm where we exist and where all things precious are kept—the realm of emotion and conscience, of memory and intention and sensation.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    The child begins life as a pleasure-seeking animal; his infantile personality is organized around his own appetites and his own body. In the course of his rearing the goal of exclusive pleasure seeking must be modified drastically, the fundamental urges must be subject to the dictates of conscience and society, urges must be capable of postponement and in some instances of renunciation completely.
    Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
