Higher

Famous quotes containing the word higher:

    But I, being man, can kiss
    And bed-spread-eagle too;
    All flesh shall come to this,
    Being less than angel is,
    Yet higher far in bliss
    As it entwines with you.
    William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    The lesson learned here is a costly one: If you stand up for your principles, follow the law, and win massively, you lose totally.
    Linda J. Carpenter, U.S. educator. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A38 (July 15, 1992)

    The passion of self-aggrandizement is persistent but plastic; it will never disappear from a vigorous mind, but may become morally higher by attaching itself to a larger conception of what constitutes the self.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
