Famous quotes containing the words greatest and/or combined:
“The greatest happiness for the thinking person is to have explored the explorable and to venerate in equanimity that which cannot be explored.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“You do not become a “dissident” just because you decide one day to take up this most unusual career. You are thrown into it by your personal sense of responsibility, combined with a complex set of external circumstances. You are cast out of the existing structures and placed in a position of conflict with them. It begins as an attempt to do your work well, and ends with being branded an enemy of society.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
