Famous quotes containing the words excess and/or activity:
“Our civilization survives in the complacency of cowardly or malignant mindsa sacrifice to the vanity of ageing adolescents.... In 1953, excess is always a comfort, and sometimes a career.”

“The Good of man is the active exercise of his souls faculties in conformity with excellence or virtue.... Moreover this activity must occupy a complete lifetime; for one swallow does not make spring, nor does one fine day; and similarly one day or a brief period of happiness does not make a man supremely blessed and happy.”
—Aristotle (384322 B.C.)
