Famous quotes containing the words private and/or activity:
“Lisa Fremont: Surprise is the most important element of attack. And besides, youre not up on your private eye literature. When theyre in trouble its always their girl Friday who gets them out of it.
L.B. Jeffries: Well, is she the girl who saves him from the clutches of the seductive show girls and the over passionate daughters of the rich?
Lisa Fremont: The same.
L.B. Jeffries: Thats the one, huh? But he never ends up marrying her, does he? Thats strange.”
—John Michael Hayes (b. 1919)
“The Good of man is the active exercise of his souls faculties in conformity with excellence or virtue.... Moreover this activity must occupy a complete lifetime; for one swallow does not make spring, nor does one fine day; and similarly one day or a brief period of happiness does not make a man supremely blessed and happy.”
—Aristotle (384322 B.C.)
