Cease

Famous quotes containing the word cease:

“It is easy and dismally enervating to think of opposition as merely perverse or actually evil—far more invigorating to see it as essential for honing the mind, and as a positive good in itself. For the day that moral issues cease to be fought over is the day the word “human” disappears from the race.”
—Jill Tweedie (b. 1936)

“It is an honor for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.”
—Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 20:3.

“To cease to admire is a proof of deterioration.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
