Emotional Feeling State

Famous quotes containing the words emotional, feeling and/or state:

    People who love only once in their lives are ... shallow people. What they call their loyalty, and their fidelity, I call either the lethargy of custom or their lack of imagination. Faithfulness is to the emotional life what consistency is to the life of the intellect—simply a confession of failures.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    [The election] ... was an event in which, so far as the personal side is concerned, the victory was to him who lost and the defeat to him who won. I can say that never in the last fifteen years have I had the peace of mind that I have since the election. I have almost a feeling of elation.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)

    If nationality is consent, the state is compulsion.
    Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
