Pleasant

Famous quotes containing the word pleasant:

    It is always so pleasant to be generous, though very vexatious to pay debts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A pleasant comedy, which paints the manners of the age, and exposes a faithful picture of nature, is a durable work, and is transmitted to the latest posterity. But a system, whether physical or metaphysical, commonly owes its success to its novelty; and is no sooner canvassed with impartiality than its weakness is discovered.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    Lying very still and thinking very little is the most inexpensive medicine for all the sicknesses of the soul, and when administered with good intentions it grows more and more pleasant with each passing hour.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
