Famous quotes containing the words person and/or recites:
“No one likes having offended another person; hence everyone feels so much better if the other person doesn’t show he’s been offended. Nobody likes being confronted by a wounded spaniel. Remember that. It is much easier patiently—and tolerantly—to avoid the person you have injured than to approach him as a friend. You need courage for that.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“It is a capital blunder; as you discover, when another man recites his charities.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
