Opinions

Famous quotes containing the word opinions:

    New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason but because they are not already common.

    I am much afraid that we shall have very greatly hastened the decline and ruin of the New World by our contagion, and that we will have sold it our opinions and our arts very dear.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    My great comfort is, that the temporary celebrity I have wrung from the world has been in the very teeth of all opinions and prejudices. I have flattered no ruling powers; I have never concealed a single thought that tempted me.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
