Lacks

Famous quotes containing the word lacks:

    The reason why the world lacks unity, and lies broken and in heaps, is, because man is disunited with himself.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    My feelings about my work are, on the whole, not unfriendly. Boundless modesty and what people call “humility” are virtues scarcely conducive to one’s complacently dwelling upon one’s own work—particularly when one lacks them.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    Life, being weary of these worldly bars,
    Never lacks power to dismiss itself.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
