Famous quotes containing the word deeper:
“Most Americans are born drunk, and really require a little wine or beer to sober them. They have a sort of permanent intoxication from within, a sort of invisible champagne.... Americans do not need to drink to inspire them to do anything, though they do sometimes, I think, need a little for the deeper and more delicate purpose of teaching them how to do nothing.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“Life is essentially a cheat and its conditions are those of defeat ... the redeeming things are not “happiness and pleasure” but the deeper satisfactions that come out of struggle.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“The deeper the experience of an absence of meaning—in other words, of absurdity—the more energetically meaning is sought.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
