Offer

Famous quotes containing the word offer:

    Things often offer themselves to our mind in a more finished form in the very first thought, than we might have made them by much art and study.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    To each they offer gifts after his will,
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
