Satisfies

Famous quotes containing the word satisfies:

    A mob cannot be a permanency: everybody’s interest requires that it should not exist, and only justice satisfies all.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    In England if something goes wrong—say, if one finds a skunk in the garden—he writes to the family solicitor, who proceeds to take the proper measures; whereas in America, you telephone the fire department. Each satisfies a characteristic need; in the English, love of order and legalistic procedure; and here in America, what you like is something vivid, and red, and swift.
    Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947)

    ... nothing satisfies the craving of most women so much as scandal.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
