Less - Quotes

 TimeFavorites

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow -
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

Edgar Allan Poe

Earn money by taking surveys! International offer!

When you have nothing to say, say nothing; a weak defence strengthens your opponent, and silence is less injurious than a bad reply.

Charles Caleb Colton

If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.

Jane Austen

If life in itself were a valuable possession and decidedly preferable to non-existence, the gate need not be occupied by such terrible guards as death and its terrors. But who would persevere in life as it is, if death were less frightful? And who could even so much as endure the thought of death, if life were a joy?

Arthur Schopenhauer

To be good is noble, but to teach others how to be good is nobler and less trouble.

Mark Twain

Love is irrational [...]. The more you loved someone, the less sense anything made.

Stephenie Meyer

Earn money by taking surveys! International offer!

There are people, who the more you do for them, the less they will do for themselves.

Jane Austen

Nicholas Sparks

True love is exceptional - two or three times a century, more or less. The rest of the time there is vanity or boredom.

Albert Camus

Time is all you have. And you may find one day that you have less than you think.

Randy Pausch

The motives by which we act are inscribed in our intimate structure as mammals, as hunters, as social beings: reason illuminates these connections, it does not generate them. We are not, in the first place, reasoning beings. We may perhaps become so, more or less, in the second. In the first instance, we are driven by a thirst for life, by hunger, by the need to love, by the instinct to find our place in human society... The second instance does not even exist without the first. Reason arbitrates between instincts but uses the very same instincts as primary criteria in its arbitration.

Carlo Rovelli

I do not fear death. I fear suffering. And I fear old age, though less so now that I am witnessing the tranquil and pleasant old age of my father. I am afraid of frailty, and of the absence of love. But death does not alarm me. It did not scare me when I was young, and I thought at the time that this was because it was such a remote prospect. But now, at sixty, the fear has yet to arrive. I love life, but life is also struggle, suffering, pain. I think of death as akin to a well-earned rest.

Carlo Rovelli

The less you reveal the more people can wonder.

Emma Watson

The more bizzarre a thing is the less mysterious it proves to be.

Arthur Conan Doyle
