Famous quotes containing the word judgment:
“It shall be said his judgment ruled our hands.
Our youths and wildness shall no whit appear,
But all be buried in his gravity.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“So often has my judgment deceived me in my life, that I always suspect it, right or wrong,at least I am seldom hot upon cold subjects. For all this, I reverence truth as much as any body; and ... if a man will but take me by the hand, and go quietly and search for it ... Ill go to the worlds end with him:MBut I hate disputes.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“Some counterfeits reproduce so very well the truth that it would be a flaw of judgment not to be deceived by them.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
