Roused

Famous quotes containing the word roused:

    Here we have the beautiful British compromise: a man can say anything, he mustn’t do anything; a man can listen to anything, but he musn’t be roused to do anything. By freedom of speech is meant freedom to talk about; speech is not saying-as-an-action.
    Paul Goodman (1911–1972)

    Passions are generally roused from great conflict.
    Titus Livius (Livy)

    Neat trick: to be roused to ambition and reconciled to one’s mediocrity at the same time.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
