Famous quotes containing the words foreign and/or office:
“If the contemplation, even of inanimate beauty, is so delightful; if it ravishes the senses, even when the fair form is foreign to us: What must be the effects of moral beauty? And what influence must it have, when it embellishes our own mind, and is the result of our own reflection and industry?”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“Reason is, and only ought to be, the slave of the passions, and can never pretend to any other office than to serve and obey them.”
