Famous quotes containing the word justify:

    All the time I feel I must justify my existence.
    Prince Charles (b. 1948)

    There is a totalitarian regime inside every one of us. We are ruled by a ruthless politburo which sets ours norms and drives us from one five-year plan to another. The autonomous individual who has to justify his existence by his own efforts is in eternal bondage to himself.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
