Famous quotes containing the word purpose:

    Politics should share one purpose with religion: the steady emancipation of the individual through the education of his passions.
    George F. Will (b. 1941)

    I want that glib and oily art
    To speak and purpose not, since what I well intend,
    I’ll do’t before I speak.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Language, the machine of the poet, is best fitted for his purpose in its rudest state. Nations, like individuals, first perceive, and then abstract. They advance from particular images to general terms. Hence the vocabulary of an enlightened society is philosophical, that of a half-civilised people is poetical.
    Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
