Quotes:
We seek him here, we seek him there,
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere.
Is he in heaven? - Is he in hell?
That damned, elusive Pimpernel?
(The Scarlet Pimpernel, 1905 vh.12)
View quotes by Baroness Orczy
Change is the watchword of progression. When we tire of well-worn ways, we seek for new. This restless craving in the souls of men spurs them to climb, and to seek the mountain viewdream
View quotes by Ella Wilcox
Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.
View quotes by Albert Schweitzer
In order to deserve, we must pay our dues and steadily work for perfection. We must relish in struggle, and relinquish pride. We must dispel fear and seek enlightenment. We must shun division and honor love. We must know our hearts and seek to understand others. We must try, live, create, feel, grow and love.
View quotes by Bryant H McGill

View quotes by Dr M Scott Peck
Seek freedom and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find your liberty
View quotes by Frank Herbert
The more you seek security, the less of it you have. But the more you seek opportunity, the more likely it is that you will achieve the security that you desire.
View quotes by Brian Tracy
Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise. Seek what they sought.
View quotes by Matsuo Basho
Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek.
View quotes by Mario Andretti
Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything.
View quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
When one is trying to do something beyond his known powers it is useless to seek the approval of friends. Friends are at their best in moments of defeat.
View quotes by Henry Miller
Democratic communities have a natural taste for freedom: left to themselves they will seek it, cherish it, and view any deprivation of it with regret. But for equality their passion is ardent, insatiable, incessant, invincible: they call for equality in freedom; and if they cannot obtain that, they still call for equality in slavery.
View quotes by Tocqueville
Genius can probably run on ahead and seek out new ways. But the good artists who follow after genius - and I count myself among these - have to restore the lost connection once more.
View quotes by Kathe Kollwitz
The apple cannot be stuck back on The Tree of Knowledge; once we begin to see, we are doomed and challenged to seek the strength to see more, not less.
View quotes by Arthur Miller
The loss of America what can repay?
New colonies seek for at Botany Bay.

Poets that lasting marble seek
Must carve in Latin or in Greek. (Of English Verse, 1645)
View quotes by Edmund Waller
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for rest;
To labour and not ask for any reward
Save that of knowing that we do Thy will.
View quotes by St Ignatius Loyola
Seek ye first the good things of the mind, and the rest will either be supplied or its loss will not be felt.
View quotes by Francis Bacon
The real distinction is between those who adapt their purposes to reality and those who seek to mold reality in the light of their purposes.
View quotes by Henry Kissinger
It is a very hard undertaking to seek to please everybody. - Maxims
