Famous quotes containing the words open and/or source:
“... for the poor the whole world is a self-constituted critic; your smallest action is open to debate.”
—Alice Foote MacDougall, U.S. businesswoman. (1867-1945)
“We are threatened with suffering from three directions: from our own body, which is doomed to decay and dissolution and which cannot even do without pain and anxiety as warning signals; from the external world, which may rage against us with overwhelming and merciless forces of destruction; and finally from our relations to other men. The suffering which comes from this last source is perhaps more painful than any other.”
—Sigmund Freud (18561939)
