Miserable Mill

Famous quotes containing the words miserable and/or mill:

    The full value of this life can only be got by fighting; the violent take it by storm. And if we have accepted everything we have missed something—war. This life of ours is a very enjoyable fight, but a very miserable truce.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    A man who has nothing which he cares about more than he does about his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the existing of better men than himself.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)
