Greatly Reduced

Famous quotes containing the words greatly and/or reduced:

    Rightly to be great
    Is not to stir without great argument,
    But greatly to find quarrel in a straw
    When honor’s at the stake.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    There surely is a being who presides over the universe; and who, with infinite wisdom and power, has reduced the jarring elements into just order and proportion. Let speculative reasoners dispute, how far this beneficent being extends his care, and whether he prolongs our existence beyond the grave, in order to bestow on virtue its just reward, and render it fully triumphant.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
