Kinds

Famous quotes containing the word kinds:

    Public opinion contains all kinds of falsity and truth, but it takes a great man to find the truth in it. The great man of the age is the one who can put into words the will of his age, tell his age what its will is, and accomplish it. What he does is the heart and the essence of his age, he actualizes his age. The man who lacks sense enough to despise public opinion expressed in gossip will never do anything great.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    I reverently believe that the Maker who made us all makes everything in New England but the weather. I don’t know who makes that, but I think it must be raw apprentices in the weather-clerk’s factory who experiment and learn how.... In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four-and-twenty hours.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
