Famous quotes containing the words leap, year and/or effects:
“Iambics march from short to long;
With a leap and a bound the swift Anapaests throng;”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (17721834)
“Its enough for you to do it once for a few men to remember you. But if you do it year after year, then many people remember you and they tell it to their children, and their children and grandchildren remember and, if it concerns books, they can read them. And if its good enough, it will last as long as there are human beings.”
—Ernest Hemingway (18991961)
“Virtues are not emotions. Emotions are movements of appetite, virtues dispositions of appetite towards movement. Moreover emotions can be good or bad, reasonable or unreasonable; whereas virtues dispose us only to good. Emotions arise in the appetite and are brought into conformity with reason; virtues are effects of reason achieving themselves in reasonable movements of the appetites. Balanced emotions are virtues effect, not its substance.”
—Thomas Aquinas (c. 12251274)
