“If we do not find anything pleasant, at least we shall find something new”
Voltaire
“If we do not find anything very pleasant, at least we shall find something new.”
“Simplicity is a pleasant thing in children, or at any age, but it is not necessarily admirable, nor is affectation altogether a thing of evil. To be normal, to be at home in the world, with a prospect of power, usefulness, or success, the person must have that imaginative insight into other minds that underlies tact and savoir-faire, morality and beneficence. This insight involves sophistication, some understanding and sharing of the clandestine impulses of human nature. A simplicity that is merely the lack of this insight indicates a sort of defect.”
Charles Horton Cooley
“A pleasant voice, which has to include clear enunciation, is not only attractive to those who hear it... its appeal is permanent.”
Loretta Young
“The pleasantness of an employment does not always evince its propriety.”
Jane Austen
“I'm growing older but not up - My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck”
Jimmy Buffet
“It was a real pleasant surprise when we started to combine. The first beans I planted were not the best, but they were still in the 46- to 49-bushel range.”
