Famous quotes containing the words popular, means and/or transport:

    “Journalism is popular, but it is popular mainly as fiction. Life is one world, and life seen in the newspapers another.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    “When we consider what, to use the words of the catechism, is the chief end of man, and what are the true necessaries and means of life, it appears as if men had deliberately chosen the common mode of living because they preferred it to any other. Yet they honestly think there is no choice left. But alert and healthy natures remember that the sun rose clear. It is never too late to give up our prejudices.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
