Substitutes

Famous quotes containing the word substitutes:

    The true artist doesn’t substitute immorality for morality. On the contrary, he always substitutes a finer morality for a grosser one.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    When all is said and done, friendship is the only trustworthy fabric of the affections. So-called love is a delirious inhuman state of mind: when hot it substitutes indulgence for fair play; when cold it is cruel, but friendship is warmth in cold, firm ground in a bog.
    Miles Franklin (1879–1954)

    In inner-party politics, these methods lead, as we shall yet see, to this: the party organization substitutes itself for the party, the central committee substitutes itself for the organization, and, finally, a “dictator” substitutes himself for the central committee.
    Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)
