“Grace is the absence of everything that indicates pain or difficulty, hesitation or incongruity.”
William Hazlitt
“Days of absence, sad and dreary, Clothed in sorrow's dark array, Days of absence, I am weary; She I love is far away.”
William Shakespeare
“Absence and death are the same - only that in death there is no suffering.”
Theodore Roosevelt
“The absence of pain in the fetus doesn't resolve the morality of abortion, but does argue against legal and clinical efforts to prevent such pain during an abortion. A mandate to provide pain relief before an abortion may expose women to inappropriate interventions, risks and distress.”
Stuart Derbyshire
“Your progress is reflected back as Grace, your decline is reflected back as its absence. The mirror just reflects. It has no partiality or prejudice.”
Sri Sathya Sai Baba
“Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.”
Dr. Carl Sagan
“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear”
Mark Twain
