Consists

Famous quotes containing the word consists:

    The first half of it consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the chance without the capacity.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Wealth is in applications of mind to nature; and the art of getting rich consists not in industry, much less in saving, but in a better order, in timeliness, in being at the right spot.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    To regard the successful experiences which ensue from a belief as a criterion of its truth is one thing—and a thing that is sometimes bad and sometimes good—but to assume that truth itself consists in the process by which it is verified is a different thing and always bad.
    William Pepperell Montague (1842–1910)
