Active

Famous quotes containing the word active:

    Why indeed must “God” be a noun? Why not a verb—the most active and dynamic of all.
    Mary Daly (b. 1928)

    The most intellectual of men are moved quite as much by the circumstances which they are used to as by their own will. The active voluntary part of a man is very small, and if it were not economised by a sleepy kind of habit, its results would be null.
    Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    You need not be proud of me.... I’m only being active till you can be again—it isn’t such a great desire on my part to serve the world and I’ll fall back into habits of sloth quite easily!
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
