Moreover, for all the sacrifices demanded by the stoic life, was there not something cowardly within it? At the heart of stoicism lay the desire to disappoint oneself before someone else had the chance to do so. Stoicism was a crude defence against the dangers of the affections of others, a danger that it would take more endurance than a life in the desert to be able to face. In calling for a monastic existence free of emotional turmoil, stoicism was simply trying to deny the legitimacy of certain potentially painful yet fundamental human needs. ~ Alain De Botton
De Gratia quotes by Alain De Botton
For the benefit of your research people, I would like to mention (so as to avoid any duplication of labor): that the planet is very like Mars; that at least seventeen states have Pinedales; that the end of the top paragraph Galley 3 is an allusion to the famous "canals" (or, more correctly, "channels") of Schiaparelli (and Percival Lowell); that I have thoroughly studied the habits of chinchillas; that Charrete is old French and should have one "t"; that Boke's source on Galley 9 is accurate; that "Lancelotik" is not a Celtic diminutive but a Slavic one; that "Betelgeuze" is correctly spelled with a "z", not an "s" as some dictionaries have it; that the "Indigo" Knight is the result of some of my own research; that Sir Grummore, mentioned both in Le Morte Darthur ad in Amadis de Gaul, was a Scotsman; that L'Eau Grise is a scholarly pun; and that neither bludgeons nor blandishments will make me give up the word "hobnailnobbing". ~ Vladimir Nabokov
De Gratia quotes by Vladimir Nabokov
Jealousy is bred in doubts. When those doubts change into certainties, then the passion either ceases or turns absolute madness. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
De Gratia quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
Our innate imbalances are further aggravated by practical demands. Our jobs make relentless calls on a narrow band of our faculties, reducing our chances of achieving rounded personalities and leaving us to suspect (often in the gathering darkness of a Sunday evening) that much of who we are, or could be, has gone unexplored. Society ends up containing a range of unbalanced groups, each hungering to sate its particular psychological deficiency, forming the backdrop against which our frequently heated conflicts about what is beautiful plays themselves out. ~ Alain De Botton
De Gratia quotes by Alain De Botton
Chanel, General De Gaulle and Picasso are the three most important figures of our time. ~ Andre Malraux
De Gratia quotes by Andre Malraux
In high school I had sex with girls quite a few times. They were straight women who I convinced to jump in the sack with me. ~ Portia De Rossi
De Gratia quotes by Portia De Rossi
I had to learn quick, because I was performing in Cinco de Mayo festivals with babies crying and people lifting their beers, and you know the feather dancers would come, and they'd say, "What are you, a poet? You're next". ~ Sandra Cisneros
De Gratia quotes by Sandra Cisneros
A man is in the right in being a man; it is the woman who is in the wrong. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
De Gratia quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
When she lives at his palace, the maiden niece of a bishop can pass for a respectable woman because, if she has a love affair, she is obliged to hoodwink her uncle. ~ Honore De Balzac
De Gratia quotes by Honore De Balzac
What a man hates, he takes seriously. ~ Michel De Montaigne
De Gratia quotes by Michel De Montaigne
O who is more to blame: He who sins for pay - Or he who pays for sin? ~ Juana Ines De La Cruz
De Gratia quotes by Juana Ines De La Cruz
We think very few people sensible, except those who are of our opinion. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
De Gratia quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
It is worse than a crime, it is a blunder. ~ Antoine Jacques Claude Joseph, Comte Boulay De La Meurthe
De Gratia quotes by Antoine Jacques Claude Joseph, Comte Boulay De La Meurthe
I love as you come into Paris, you've got the Arch de Triomphe and all that crazy traffic. Then I love the drive from Paris down to Antibes and you veer off east in through the Alps and you come into the south of France on the mountain road as opposed to the freeway. ~ Luke Goss
De Gratia quotes by Luke Goss
In growing old, we become more foolish - and more wise. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
De Gratia quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
Opinion is a powerful party, bold, and without measure. ~ Michel De Montaigne
De Gratia quotes by Michel De Montaigne
We are living in the world of pandemic.
Life is not the same as it was before.
We have to choose new ways of living.
Being ignorance or in denial won't make you immune to the virus.
Choose to be responsible and always be careful. Watch what you do, where you go and what you touch. You can practice your freedom by choosing to be safe. ~ De Philosopher DJ Kyos
De Gratia quotes by De Philosopher DJ Kyos
Hope, deceiving as it is, serves at least to lead us to the end of our lives by an agreeable route. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
De Gratia quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
Patience is one of those feminine qualities which have their origin in our oppression but should be preserved after our liberation. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
De Gratia quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
The best cure for one's bad tendencies is to see them in action in another person. ~ Alain De Botton
De Gratia quotes by Alain De Botton
She was a sweet girl but not really pretty, a rough sketch of a woman with a little of everything in her, one of those silhouettes which artists draw in three strokes on the tablecloth in a café after dinner, between a glass of brandy and a cigarette. Nature sometimes turns out creatures like that. ~ Guy De Maupassant
De Gratia quotes by Guy De Maupassant
<<<<<---All Language Is Defined by The Spirit---->>>> ~ Paul De Aragon
De Gratia quotes by Paul De Aragon
To develop thinking as a skill, it should be deliberate, focused, confident, and enjoyable. ~ Edward De Bono
De Gratia quotes by Edward De Bono
I would rather be old for a shorter time than be old before my time. ~ Michel De Montaigne
De Gratia quotes by Michel De Montaigne
When I was a little girl, I believed in fairy tales and one of the dreams I had was someday dancing alongside my prince. Asher's that guy for me. He's my dream and my wish come true. He's my prince. ~ Lisa De Jong
De Gratia quotes by Lisa De Jong
I said to de Lord, 'I'm goin' to hold steady on to you, an' I know you'll see me through.' ~ Harriet Tubman
De Gratia quotes by Harriet Tubman
There is many a monster who wears the form of a man; it is better of the two to have the heart of a man and the form of a monster. ~ Jeanne-Marie Leprince De Beaumont
De Gratia quotes by Jeanne-Marie Leprince De Beaumont
Next time you pull a knife on me," Inga growled, "this is vhat I do to you."

She hammered a scruffy bush with the violent and athletic kick of a Chinaman in a kung fu movie.

"Extreme Unction!" the bush howled. "Call de priest! Me need Extreme Unction!"

"Inga!" Aloysius cried. "De bush no trouble you! Him is a Catholic bush! ~ Anthony C. Winkler
De Gratia quotes by Anthony C. Winkler
Now tell me the truth," he said. "Why are you doing this?" She cringe from him. "I told you why." "I know you still love me." He smiled. "I can see it in your face." Mimi sneered. "We are with Lucifer now; we have always been false." "I don't believe it for one second," Kingsley whispered, looking into her eyes tenderly. ~ Melissa De La Cruz
De Gratia quotes by Melissa De La Cruz
I have not found a single good man in government; I have found good only in the people. ~ Louis Antoine De Saint-Just
De Gratia quotes by Louis Antoine De Saint-Just
A writer is hoisted up onto a pedestal only to scrutinize him more closely and conclude that it was a mistake to put him up there in the first place. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
De Gratia quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
Again, let's pay all due respect to De Palma and put him over here so we're not saying, "Mine's deeper, mine's better." Let's just say, in reading the book, what I fell in love with was this mother-daughter story that was so amazing and so profound. ~ Kimberly Peirce
De Gratia quotes by Kimberly Peirce
It is beauty that begins to please, and tenderness that completes the cbarm. ~ Bernard Le Bovier De Fontenelle
De Gratia quotes by Bernard Le Bovier De Fontenelle
The more I see of men the more I like dogs. ~ Madame De Stael
De Gratia quotes by Madame De Stael
The house has to be clean and in order because I have to be able to sift through the creative disorder in my mind. The mental disorder that I'm exploring has to bounce off the walls. It has to go in and out of different rooms. If the room is not in order, then I can't distinguish which is which, and that really drives me crazy. ~ Alexis De Veaux
De Gratia quotes by Alexis De Veaux
When the legislative and executive powers are united in the same person, or in the same body of magistrates, there can be no liberty; because apprehensions may arise, lest the same monarch or senate should enact tyrannical laws, to execute them in a tyrannical manner. ~ Charles De Secondat
De Gratia quotes by Charles De Secondat
It is inherent in human consciousness to improve. So there is nothing unique about a people searching for and creating ways to make their life better - all civilizations throughout history have done this. What is unique about us in America is the accelerated rate at which we continually search for novelty and progress. ~ Barbara De Angelis
De Gratia quotes by Barbara De Angelis
We can be more clever than one, but not more clever than all. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
De Gratia quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
The majority of pop stars are complete idiots in every respect. ~ Marquis De Sade
De Gratia quotes by Marquis De Sade
Discount all praise by nine-tenths, since a king draws flatterers as offal does flies. ~ L. Sprague De Camp
De Gratia quotes by L. Sprague De Camp
I think that creative people, wherever they are, in any field, take inspiration wherever they can find it. ~ Simon De Pury
De Gratia quotes by Simon De Pury
Virtue is persecuted by the wicked more than it is loved by the good. ~ Miguel De Cervantes Saavedra
De Gratia quotes by Miguel De Cervantes Saavedra
Today, however, every company has become a de facto publisher, creating content that's valued by those they want to reach. ~ Ann Handley
De Gratia quotes by Ann Handley
There is no conversation more boring than the one where everybody agrees. ~ Michel De Montaigne
De Gratia quotes by Michel De Montaigne
How do we not have money? This is a country of organizations. Everywhere you look people are organizing themselves into groups, one joining many and many morphing into one. They have money, let's have at some of it. ~ Sergio De La Pava
De Gratia quotes by Sergio De La Pava
There will be nothing you may not aspire to; you will go everywhere, and you will find out what the world is - an assemblage of fools and knaves. ~ Honore De Balzac
De Gratia quotes by Honore De Balzac
If a man should importune me to give a reason why I loved him, I find it could no otherwise be expressed, than by making answer: because it was he, because it was I. ~ Michel De Montaigne
De Gratia quotes by Michel De Montaigne
Law in general is human reason, inasmuch as it governs all the inhabitants of the earth: the political and civil laws of each nation ought to be only the particular cases in which human reason is applied. ~ Charles De Secondat
De Gratia quotes by Charles De Secondat
Tragedies are all right for a while: you are concerned, you are curious, you feel good. And then it gets repetitive, it doesn't advance, it grows dreadfully boring: it is so very boring, even for me. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
De Gratia quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
