The laws of conscience, which we pretend to be derived from nature, proceed from custom View quotes by Montaigne
Actions rare and sudden do commonly proceed from fierce necessity, of else from some oblique design, which is ashamed to show itself in the public road. View quotes by William Davenant
A thought which does not result in an action is nothing much, and an action which does not proceed from a thought is nothing at all. View quotes by Georges Bernanos
