Natural Enemies

Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or enemies:

    “The whole of natural theology ... resolves itself into one simple, though somewhat ambiguous proposition, That the cause or causes of order in the universe probably bear some remote analogy to human intelligence.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)

    “Never yield to that temptation, which, to most young men, is very strong, of exposing other people’s weaknesses and infirmities, for the sake either of diverting the company, or of showing your own superiority. You may get the laugh on your side by it for the present; but you will make enemies by it for ever; and even those who laugh with you then, will, upon reflection, fear, and consequently hate you.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
