Case

Famous quotes containing the word case:

    “Instructing in cures, therapists always recommend that “each case be individualized.” If this advice is followed, one becomes persuaded that those means recommended in textbooks as the best, means perfectly appropriate for the template case, turn out to be completely unsuitable in individual cases.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “Sculpture and painting are very justly called liberal arts; a lively and strong imagination, together with a just observation, being absolutely necessary to excel in either; which, in my opinion, is by no means the case of music, though called a liberal art, and now in Italy placed even above the other two—a proof of the decline of that country.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Wealth is not without its advantages and the case to the contrary, although it has often been made, has never proved widely persuasive.”
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
