Increases

Famous quotes containing the word increases:

    All in all, punishment hardens and renders people more insensible; it concentrates; it increases the feeling of estrangement; it strengthens the power of resistance.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    But the desire of knowledge, like the thirst of riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it....
    ——Endless is the Search of Truth!
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    The search for conspiracy only increases the elements of morbidity and paranoia and fantasy in this country. It romanticizes crimes that are terrible because of their lack of purpose. It obscures our necessary understanding, all of us, that in this life there is often tragedy without reason.
    Anthony Lewis (b. 1927)
