Granted Preference

Famous quotes containing the words granted and/or preference:

“May she be granted beauty and yet not
Beauty to make a stranger’s eye distraught,
Or hers before a looking-glass, for such,
Being made beautiful overmuch,
Consider beauty a sufficient end,
Lose natural kindness”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Moral choices do not depend on personal preference and private decision but on right reason and, I would add, divine order.”
