Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or sources:

    “Of all natural forces, vitality is the incommunicable one.... Vitality never “takes.” You have it or you haven’t it, like health or brown eyes or a baritone voice.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we’re looking for the sources of our troubles, we shouldn’t test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.”
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)
