Positive

Famous quotes containing the word positive:

    Property is the fruit of labor—property is desirable—is a positive good in the world.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Men just don’t “get” that the reason to become involved is for ourselves. Doing more with our children won’t simply make women happier or keep them “off our backs,” but will create a deeper, more positive connection with the kids.
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    It is easy and dismally enervating to think of opposition as merely perverse or actually evil—far more invigorating to see it as essential for honing the mind, and as a positive good in itself. For the day that moral issues cease to be fought over is the day the word “human” disappears from the race.
    Jill Tweedie (b. 1936)
