Reaches

Famous quotes containing the word reaches:

    “Despair is the price one pays for setting oneself an impossible aim. It is, one is told, the unforgivable sin, but it is a sin the corrupt or evil man never practises. He always has hope. He never reaches the freezing-point of knowing absolute failure. Only the man of goodwill carries always in his heart this capacity for damnation.”
    —Graham Greene (1904–1991)

    “Colonel, never go out to meet trouble. If you will just sit still, nine cases out of ten someone will intercept it before it reaches you.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “One never reaches home, but wherever friendly paths intersect the whole world looks like home for a time.”
    —Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
