Mental Qualities

Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or qualities:

“It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.”
—William Golding (b. 1911)

“Some good qualities are like the senses: Those who are entirely deprived of them can have no notion of them.”
