Thinking

Famous quotes containing the word thinking:

“A man’s real faith is never contained in his creed, nor is his creed an article of his faith. The last is never adopted. This it is that permits him to smile ever, and to live even as bravely as he does. And yet he clings anxiously to his creed, as to a straw, thinking that that does him good service because his sheet anchor does not drag.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“They were not thinking of the means by which they could win, but how they could
make use of the victory.”
—Julius Caesar [Gaius Julius Caesar] (100–44 B.C.)

“I would introduce myself if it were not useless. The name I had last night will not be the same as the name I have tonight. For the moment, then, let me say that I am thinking of Sam Slovoda.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
