Famous quotes containing the word balance:

    “Success goes thus invariably with a certain plus or positive power: an ounce of power must balance an ounce of weight.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It has been the struggle between privileged men who have managed to get hold of the levers of power and the people in general with their vague and changing aspirations for equality, for justice, for some kind of gentler brotherhood and peace, which has kept that balance of forces we call our system of government in equilibrium.”
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    “Partisanship should be kept out of the pulpit.... The blindest of partisans are preachers. All politicians expect and find more candor, fairness, and truth in politicians than in partisan preachers. They are not replied to—no chance to reply to them.... The balance wheel of free institutions is free discussion. The pulpit allows no free discussion.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
