Famous quotes containing the words action and/or mode:
“Perhaps a modern society can remain stable only by eliminating adolescence, by giving its young, from the age of ten, the skills, responsibilities, and rewards of grownups, and opportunities for action in all spheres of life. Adolescence should be a time of useful action, while book learning and scholarship should be a preoccupation of adults.”
—Eric Hoffer (19021983)
“Sight is the least sensual of all the senses. And we strain ourselves to see, see, seeeverything, everything through the eye, in one mode of objective curiosity.”
