Sufficient Reason

Famous quotes containing the words sufficient and/or reason:

    For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
    Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Luke, 14:28.

    I devote myself to what I love the most, and for this very reason I hesitate to designate it with lofty words: I do not want to risk believing that it is a sublime compulsion, a law, which I obey: I love what I love the most too much to wish to appear to it as one compelled.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
