Resting Heart Rate

Famous quotes containing the words resting, heart and/or rate:

    We judge a horse not only by its pace on a racecourse, but also by its walk, nay, when resting in its stable.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    It is the heart which experiences God, and not the reason. This, then, is faith: God felt by the heart, not by the reason.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    I don’t know but a book in a man’s brain is better off than a book bound in calf—at any rate it is safer from criticism. And taking a book off the brain, is akin to the ticklish & dangerous business of taking an old painting off a panel—you have to scrape off the whole brain in order to get at it with due safety—& even then, the painting may not be worth the trouble.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
