Troubled Minds

Famous quotes containing the words troubled and/or minds:

    A wise man should order his interests, and set them all in their proper places. This order is often troubled by greed, which puts us upon pursuing so many things at once that, in eagerness for matters of less consideration, we grasp at trifles, and let go things of greater value.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    It is the ignorant and childish part of mankind that is the fighting part. Idle and vacant minds want excitement, as all boys kill cats.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
