Act Passed

Famous quotes containing the words act and/or passed:

    Spirit is now a very fashionable word: to act with Spirit, to speak with Spirit, means only to act rashly, and to talk indiscreetly. An able man shows his Spirit by gentle words and resolute actions; he is neither hot nor timid.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    The press, the machine, the railroad, the telegraph are premises whose conclusion once a thousand years have passed no one has dared to draw as yet.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
