Famous quotes containing the word content:

    “It is still not enough for language to have clarity and content ... it must also have a goal and an imperative. Otherwise from language we descend to chatter, from chatter to babble and from babble to confusion.”
    —René Daumal (1908–1944)

    “For believe me!—the secret to harvesting the greatest abundance and the greatest enjoyment from existence is this—living dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors, so long as you cannot be rulers and possessors, you knowing ones! The time will soon be past when you could be content to live hidden in the forests like timid deer.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “The real leader has no need to lead—he is content to point the way.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)
