Deeper

Famous quotes containing the word deeper:

    “But misery still delights to trace
    Its ‘semblance in another’s case.

    No voice divine the storm allay’d,
    No light propitious shone;
    When, snatch’d from all effectual aid,
    We perish’d, each alone:
    But I beneath a rougher sea,
    And whelm’d in deeper gulphs than he.”
    —William Cowper (1731–1800)

    “Humor is not a mood but a way of looking at the world. So if it is correct to say that humor was stamped out in Nazi Germany, that does not mean that people were not in good spirits, or anything of that sort, but something much deeper and more important.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    “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)
