Famous quotes containing the words quick and/or reaction:
“Life is all memory except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going.”

“In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
