Reasons

Famous quotes containing the word reasons:

    As if her velvet helmet high
    Did turret rationality.
    She fans her wing up to the winde
    As if her Pettycoate were lin’de
    With reasons fleece, and hoises saile
    And humming flies in thankfull gaile
    Edward Taylor (1645–1729)

    There may be other reasons for a man’s not speaking in publick than want of resolution: he may have nothing to say.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    One who is publicly honest about himself ends up by priding himself somewhat on this honesty: for he knows only too well why he is honest—for the same reasons another person prefers illusion and dissimulation.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
