«The most distinguishing feature of winners is their intensity of purpose.»
«I am continually fascinated at the difficulty intelligent people have in distinguishing what is controversial from what is merely offensive.»
«Who could deny that privacy is a jewel? It has always been the mark of privilege, the distinguishing feature of a truly urbane culture. Out of the cave, the tribal teepee, the pueblo, the community fortress, man emerged to build himself a house of his own with a shelter in it for himself and his diversions. Every age has seen it so. The poor might have to huddle together in cities for need's sake, and the frontiersman cling to his neighbors for the sake of protection. But in each civilization, as it advanced, those who could afford it chose the luxury of a withdrawing-place.»
«However fiercely opposed one may be to the present order, an old respect for the idea of order itself often prevents people from distinguishing between order and those who stand for order, and leads them in practice to respect individuals under the pretext of respecting order itself.»
«Wise kings generally have wise counselors; and he must be a wise man himself who is capable of distinguishing one»
Author: Diogenes (Founder, Philosopher) | About: Wisdom | Keywords: counselors, distinguishing
«The chief evil of war is more evil. War is the concentration of all human crimes. Here is its distinguishing, accursed brand. Under its standard gather violence, malignity, rage, fraud, perfidy, rapacity, and lust. If it only slew man, it would do little. It turns man into a beast of prey.»
«NOVEL, n. A short story padded. A species of composition bearing the same relation to literature that the panorama bears to art. As it is too long to be read at a sitting the impressions made by its successive parts are successively effaced, as in the panorama. Unity, totality of effect, is impossible; for besides the few pages last read all that is carried in mind is the mere plot of what has gone before. To the romance the novel is what photography is to painting. Its distinguishing principle, probability, corresponds to the literal actuality of the photograph and puts it distinctly into the category of reporting; whereas the free wing of the romancer enables him to mount to such altitudes of imagination as he may be fitted to attain; and the first three essentials of the literary art are imagination, imagination and imagination. The art of writing novels, such as it was, is long dead everywhere except in Russia, where it is new. Peace to its ashes --some of which have a large sale.»
«As long as there are rich people in the world, they will be desirous of distinguishing themselves from the poor.»
«The distinguishing sign of slavery is to have a price, and to be bought for it.»
Author: John Ruskin (Critic, Writer) | Keywords: bought, distinguishing
«Philanthropic people lose all sense of humanity. It is their distinguishing characteristic.»
