Quote of the Day

Man is nature's sole mistake.
View quotes by W S Gilbert

To withdraw myself from myself has ever been my sole, my entire, my sincere motive in scribbling at all.
View quotes by Lord Byron

Curiosity is but vanity. Oftenest one wishes to know but to talk of it. Otherwise one would not go to sea if he were never to say anything about it, and for the sole pleasure of seeing, without hope of ever communicating what he has seen.
View quotes by Blaise Pascal

As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being.
View quotes by Carl Gustav Jung

We cannot suppose that God has made an order of beings, with such mental qualities and powers, for the sole purpose of being used as beasts, or instruments of labour.
View quotes by Thomas Clarkson

Marriage is an act of will that signifies and involves a mutual gift, which unites the spouses and binds them to their eventual souls, with whom they make up a sole family - a domestic church.

View quotes by Pope John Paul II

I understand by this passion the union of desire, friendship, and tenderness, which is inflamed by a single female, which prefers her to the rest of her sex, and which seeks her possession as the supreme or the sole happiness of our being.
View quotes by Edward Gibbon

Truth, naked, unblushing truth, the first virtue of all serious history, must be the sole recommendation of this personal narrative.
View quotes by Edward Gibbon

One only leaf upon the top of a tree - the sole remaining leaf - danced round and round like a rag blown by the wind. (Alfoxden Journal, 7 March 1798)
View quotes by Dorothy Wordsworth

If insemination were the sole biological function of sex, it could be achieved far more economically in a few seconds of mounting and insertion. Indeed, the least social of mammals mate with scarcely more ceremony. The species that have evolved long-term bonds are also, by and large, the ones that rely on elabourate courtship rituals. Love and sex do indeed go together.
View quotes by Edward O Wilson

'I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments.'
