Famous quotes containing the words judgement of, judgement and/or paris:

    Every judgement of conscience, be it right or wrong, be it about things evil in themselves or morally indifferent, is obligatory, in such wise that he who acts against his conscience always sins.
    Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225–1274)

    Thyself thou gav’st, thy own worth then not knowing,
    Or me, to whom thou gav’st it, else mistaking;
    So thy great gift, upon misprision growing,
    Comes home again, on better judgement making.
    Thus have I had thee, as a dream doth flatter,
    In sleep a king, but, waking, no such matter.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
