“Love is a capricious creature which desires everything and can be contented with almost nothing”
Madeline de Scudery
“There is nothing capricious in nature and the implanting of a desire indicates that its gratification is in the constitution of the creature that feel it.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“I've always loved the flirtatious tango of consonants and vowels, the sturdy dependability of nouns and capricious whimsy of verbs, the strutting pageantry of the adjective and the flitting evanescence of the adverb, all kept safe and orderly by those reliable little policemen, punctuation marks. Wow! Think I got my ass kicked in high school?”
Dennis Miller
“Any test that turns on what is offensive to the community's standards is too loose, too capricious, too destructive of freedom of expression to be squared with the First Amendment. Under that test, juries can censor, suppress, and punish what they don't like, provided the matter relates to "sexual impurity" or has a tendency "to excite lustful thoughts." This is community censorship in one of its worst forms.”
William Orville Douglas
“These guys had not really done anything wrong. They did everything they were supposed to. Lightning is such a capricious instrument.”
William Tweed
“It's just not that much of an anomaly. Weather can be very capricious.”
Wendy Wong
“If you seek nothing, you'll earn everything; but if you seek everything, you'll earn nothing.”
