Famous quotes containing the word source:

    “Discourses on humility are a source of pride in the vain and of humility in the humble. So those on scepticism cause believers to affirm. Few men speak humbly of humility, chastely of chastity, few doubtingly of scepticism.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
