Judgement of Paris/kallist%c4%93i

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)

    Let us be realistic and demand the impossible.
    [Soyons rĂ©alistes, demandons l’impossible.]
    —Graffito. Paris ‘68, ch. 2, Marc Rohan (1988)
