Rely

Famous quotes containing the word rely:

    The most honorable, as well as the safest course, is to rely entirely upon
    valour.
    Titus Livius (Livy)

    We have been educated to such a fine—or dull—point that we are incapable of enjoying something new, something different, until we are first told what it’s all about. We don’t trust our five senses; we rely on our critics and educators, all of whom are failures in the realm of creation. In short, the blind lead the blind. It’s the democratic way.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    It seems to be a rule of wisdom never to rely on your memory alone, scarcely even in acts of pure memory, but to bring the past for judgment into the thousand-eyed present, and live ever in a new day.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
