Famous quotes containing the word rarely:
“Even if fathers are more benignly helpful, and even if they spend time with us teaching us what they know, rarely do they tell us what they feel. They stand apart emotionally: strong perhaps, maybe caring in a nonverbal, implicit way; but their internal world remains mysterious, unseen, “What are they really like?” we ask ourselves. “What do they feel about us, about the world, about themselves?””
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
“Statesmen and beauties are very rarely sensible of the gradations of their decay; and, too sanguinely hoping to shine on in their meridian, often set with contempt and ridicule.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“The higher its type, the more rarely a thing succeeds.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
