Satisfied

Famous quotes containing the word satisfied:

    One cannot long remain so absorbed in contemplation of emptiness without being increasingly attracted to it. In vain one bestows on it the name of infinity; this does not change its nature. When one feels such pleasure in non- existence, one’s inclination can be completely satisfied only by completely ceasing to exist.
    Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)

    Some moralist or mythological poet
    Compares the solitary soul to a swan;
    I am satisfied with that,
    Satisfied if a troubled mirror show it,
    Before that brief gleam of its life be gone....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I wasn’t satisfied just to earn a good living. I was looking to make a statement.
    Donald Trump (b. 1946)
