Diverse Tendency

Famous quotes containing the words diverse and/or tendency:

    We are all patchwork, and so shapeless and diverse in composition that each bit, each moment, plays its own game.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    I begin, then, with some remarks about ‘the meaning of a word.’ I think many persons now see all or part of what I shall say: but not all do, and there is a tendency to forget, or to get it slightly wrong. In so far as I am merely flogging the converted, I apologize to them.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
