Aim

Famous quotes containing the word aim:

    Bees plunder the flowers here and there, but afterward they make of them honey, which is all theirs; it is no longer thyme or marjoram. Even so with the pieces borrowed from others; one will transform and blend them to make a work that is all one’s own, that is, one’s judgement. Education, work, and study aim only at forming this.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    I aim here only at revealing myself, who will perhaps be different tomorrow, if I learn something new which changes me.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    The aim of New Deals is to exterminate the class of creditors and thrust all men into that of debtors. It is like trying to breed cattle with all cows and no bulls.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
