Famous quotes containing the words part and/or passion:
“Even if matter could do every outward thing that God does, the idea of it would not work as satisfactorily, because the chief call for a God on modern men’s part is for a being who will inwardly recognize them and judge them sympathetically. Matter disappoints this craving of our ego, so God remains for most men the truer hypothesis, and indeed remains so for definite pragmatic reasons.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“But hatred is a much more delightful passion & never cloys; it will make us all happy for the rest of our lives.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
