Famous quotes containing the words states and/or admitted:

    “We cannot feel strongly toward the totally unlike because it is unimaginable, unrealizable; nor yet toward the wholly like because it is stale—identity must always be dull company. The power of other natures over us lies in a stimulating difference which causes excitement and opens communication, in ideas similar to our own but not identical, in states of mind attainable but not actual.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    “It must be admitted that there are some parts of the soul which we must entirely paralyse before we can live happily in this world.”
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
