Famous quotes containing the word defects:

    We should endeavor practically in our lives to correct all the defects which our imagination detects.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind, and they are in continual danger of breaking the skin and bursting out again.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    There’s terrific merit in having no sense of humour, no sense of irony, practically no sense of anything at all. If you’re born with these so-called defects you have a very good chance of getting to the top.
    Peter Cook (b. 1937)
