Famous quotes containing the word reasonable:
“If I were just curious, it would be very hard to say to someone, “I want to come to your house and have you talk to me and tell me the story of your life.” I mean people are going to say, “You’re crazy.” Plus they’re going to keep mighty guarded. But the camera is a kind of license. A lot of people, they want to be paid that much attention and that’s a reasonable kind of attention to be paid.”
—Diane Arbus (1923–1971)
“A man that is ashamed of passions that are natural and reasonable is generally proud of those that are shameful and silly.”
—Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)
“Well, I never would have believed that grown up men could behave like spiteful little schoolboys. Have I said something to annoy you? Then I forget, anything reasonable annoys you.”
—Emeric Pressburger (1902–1988)
