“We must distinguish between speaking to deceive and being silent to be reserved.”
Voltaire
“They aren't Jeb Bush. They don't speak Spanish off the top of their head. They have to distinguish themselves either by who they pick as a running mate or by how they conduct themselves on the campaign trail.”
Geoffrey Becker
“Disobedience, the rarest and most courageous of the virtues, is seldom distinguished from neglect, the laziest and commonest of the vices.”
George Bernard Shaw
“Without feelings of respect, what is there to distinguish men from beasts?”
Confucius
“The desire to take medicine is perhaps the greatest feature which distinguishes man from animals.”
William Osler
“You have to distinguish between things that seemed odd when they were new but are now quite familiar, such as Ibsen and Wagner, and things that seemed crazy when they were new and seem crazy now, like Finnegans Wake and Picasso.”
Philip Larkin
“Constant revolutionizing of production distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.”
Karl Marx
