Famous quotes containing the word extent:

    There is hardly a man clever enough to recognize the full extent of the evil he does.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    The history of philosophy is to a great extent that of a certain clash of human temperaments.
    William James (1842–1910)

    I expect a time when, or rather an integrity by which, a man will get his coat as honestly and as perfectly fitting as a tree its bark. Now our garments are typical of our conformity to the ways of the world, i.e., of the devil, and to some extent react on us and poison us, like that shirt which Hercules put on.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
