Famous quotes containing the words reasons for, reasons and/or failure:

    One of the many reasons for the bewildering and tragic character of human existence is the fact that social organization is at once necessary and fatal. Men are forever creating such organizations for their own convenience and forever finding themselves the victims of their home-made monsters.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    I should like to know what is the proper function of women, if it is not to make reasons for husbands to stay at home, and still stronger reasons for bachelors to go out.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    The only failure a man ought to fear is failure in cleaving to the purpose he sees to be best.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
