Weapon Design

Famous quotes containing the words weapon and/or design:

    “But what is the imagination? Only an arm or weapon of the interior energy; only the precursor of reason.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Humility is often only the putting on of a submissiveness by which men hope to bring other people to submit to them; it is a more calculated sort of pride, which debases itself with a design of being exalted; and though this vice transform itself into a thousand several shapes, yet the disguise is never more effectual nor more capable of deceiving the world than when concealed under a form of humility.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
