Eternal Idol

Famous quotes containing the words eternal and/or idol:

“I sometimes think that the price of liberty is not so much eternal vigilance as eternal dirt.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)

“One should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place. One should direct them towards mutual affection. A beast gnawing at its prey can be happy too, but only human beings can feel affection for each other, and this is the highest achievement they can aspire to.”
—Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)
