“The pleasures of love are for those who are hopelessly addicted to another living creature. The reasons for such addiction are so many that I suspect they are never the same in any two cases. It includes passion but does not survive by passion; it has its whiffs of the agreeable vertigo of young love, but it is stable more often than dizzy; it is a growing, changing thing, and it is tactful enough to give the addicted parties occasional rests from strong and exhausting feeling of any kind.” GivingKindDoeTwoReasonEnoughFeelingsYoungPassionStrongPleasurePartyCasesGrowingCreaturesAddictionSuspectsStableOccasionalExhaustingYoung LoveLiving CreaturesDizzyVertigo Author:Robertson Davies
“Those who are successfully to lead their fellow-men, should have once possessed the nobler feelings. We have all known individuals whose magnanimity was not likely to be troublesome on any occasion; but then they betrayed their own interests by unwisely omitting the consideration, that such feelings might exist in the breasts of those whom they had to guide and govern: for they themselves cannot even remember the time when in their eyes justice appeared preferable to expediency, the happiness of others to self-interest, or the welfare of a State to the advancement of a party.” MenShouldSelfStatesFeelingsMightEyeRememberIndividualInterestLeadershipJusticePartyKnownShould HaveFellowsGuidesOccasionsWelfareBreastsConsiderationPossessedBetrayedFellow ManAdvancementSelf InterestTroublesomeExpediencyMagnanimityOmitting Book:Thoughts in the Cloister and the Crowd Source: Thoughts in the Cloister and the Crowd

“It is my feeling that as we grow older we should become not less radical but more so. I do not, of course, mean this in any political-party sense, but rather in a willingness to struggle for those things in which we passionately believe. Social activism and the struggle for social justice are often thought of as the natural activities of the young but not of the middle-aged or the elderly. In fact, I don't think this was ever true.” ThinkingShouldBelieveMeanFactsFeelingsYoungPoliticalCoursesSocialGrowsNaturalJusticePartyStruggleMiddleActivitySocial JusticeAgingActivismRadicalWillingnessPolitical PartiesElderlyMiddle AgedSocial Activism Author:Margaret Laurence
“Mr. [Aldous] Huxley has been the alarming young man for a long time, a sort of perpetual clever nephew who can be relied on to flutter the lunch party. Whatever will he say next? How does he think of those things? He has been deplored once or twice, but feeling is in his favor: he is steadily read. He is at once the truly clever person and the stupid person's idea of the clever person; he is expected to be relentless, to administer intellectual shocks.” ThinkingMenPersonsLongDoeHas BeensIdeasFeelingsYoungNextPartyStupidLong TimeIntellectualExpectedFavorsCleverYoung ManShockLunchPerpetualRelentlessNephewHuxleyStupid PersonClever Person Author:Elizabeth Bowen
