Famous quotes containing the words left hand, left and/or hand:
“As for conforming outwardly, and living your own life inwardly, I do not think much of that. Let not your right hand know what your left hand does in that line of business. It will prove a failure.... It is a greater strain than any soul can long endure. When you get God to pulling one way, and the devil the other, each having his feet well braced,—to say nothing of the conscience sawing transversely,—almost any timber will give way.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There is only one way left to escape the alienation of present day society: to retreat ahead of it.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
“... self-determination and self-defense go hand in hand.”
—Anonymous, U.S. woman. As quoted in Fugitive Information, ch. 8, by Kay Leigh Hagan (1993)
