Reasonable

Famous quotes containing the word reasonable:

    Our kids will develop a work ethic only if we require them to pay a portion of the cost of some of the things they want. They’ll learn to defer gratification the moment we stop routinely pulling out our wallets. And they’ll learn self-discipline only if we care enough to enforce reasonable limits.
    Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

    ... the novelist is bound by the reasonable possibilities, not the probabilities, of his culture.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    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)
