Famous quotes containing the word purpose:

    “... my one aim and concentrated purpose shall be and is to show that women can learn, can reason, can compete with men in the grand fields of literature and science ... that a woman can be a woman and a true one without having all her time engrossed by dress and society.”
    —M. Carey Thomas (1857–1935)

    “The purpose of punishment is to improve those who do the punishing—that is the final recourse of those who support punishment.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “There are a sort of men whose visages
    Do cream and mantle like a standing pond,
    And do a willful stillness entertain,
    With purpose to be dressed in an opinion
    Of wisdom, gravity, profound conceit,
    As who should say, “I am Sir Oracle,
    And when I ope my lips let no dog bark!””
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
