Famous quotes containing the word deliberate:

    O, these deliberate fools, when they do choose,

    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Several moralists have recommended it as an excellent method of becoming acquainted with our own hearts, and knowing our progress in virtue, to recollect our dreams in a morning, and examine them with the same rigour that we would our most serious and most deliberate actions.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    The deliberate consciousness of America so fair and smooth-spoken, and the under-consciousness so devilish. Destroy! destroy! destroy! hums the under-consciousness. Love and produce! Love and produce! cackles the upper-consciousness.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
