Proper Motions

Famous quotes containing the words proper and/or motions:

    The proper office of religion is to regulate the heart of men, humanize their conduct, infuse the spirit of temperance, order, and obedience; and as its operation is silent, and only enforces the motives of morality and justice, it is in danger of being overlooked, and confounded with these other motives.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    If ever thou shalt love,
    In the sweet pangs of it remember me;
    For such as I am, all true lovers are,
    Unstaid and skittish in all motions else
    Save in the constant image of the creature
    That is beloved.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
