Famous quotes containing the word share:
“It has no share in the leadership of thought: it does not even reflect its current. It does not create beauty: it apes fashion. It does not produce personal skill: our actors and actresses, with the exception of a few persons with natural gifts and graces, mostly miscultivated or half-cultivated, are simply the middle-class section of the residuum.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“A soul that is reluctant to share does not as a rule have much of its own. Miserliness is here a symptom of meagerness.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“The share we have in the knowledge of truth, such as it is, has not been acquired by our own powers. God has taught us ... his wonderful secrets; our faith is not of our acquiring, it is purely the gift of another’s bounty.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
