An appeal to the reason of the people has never been known to fail in the long run.
James Russell Lowell
I guess the real reason that my wife and I had children is the same reason that Napoleon had for invading Russia: it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Bill Cosby
Poets have said that the reason to have children is to give yourself immortality. Immortality? Now that I have five children, my only hope is that they are all out of the house before I die.
Bill Cosby
I am favor of cutting taxes under any circumstances and for any excuse, for any reason, whenever it's possible.
Milton Friedman
Where youth and diffidence are united, it requires uncommon steadiness of reason to resist the attraction of being called the most charming girl in the world.
Jane Austen
It is good to be solitary, for solitude is difficult; that something is difficult must be a reason the more for us to do it.
Rainer Maria Rilke
In all private quarrels the duller nature is triumphant by reason of dullness.
George Eliot
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
H. L. Mencken
What is a wife and what is a harlot? What is a church and what is a theatre? are they two and not one? Can they exist separate? Are not religion and politics the same thing? Brotherhood is religion. O demonstrations of reason dividing families in cruelty and pride!
William Blake
Without contraries is no progression. Attraction and repulsion, reason and energy, love and hate, are necessary to human existence.
William Blake
The very essence of instinct is that it's followed independently of reason.
Charles Darwin
I learned how important it is to entertain people and give them a reason to come and watch you play.
Elvis Presley
War contains so much folly, as well as wickedness, that much is to be hoped from the progress of reason.
James Madison
If we are to take for the criterion of truth the majority of suffrages, they ought to be gotten from those philosophic and patriotic citizens who cultivate their reason.
James Madison
To the press alone, chequered as it is with abuses, the world is indebted for all the triumphs which have been gained by reason and humanity over error and oppression.
James Madison
As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed.
James Madison
The last temptation is the greatest treason: to do the right deed for the wrong reason.
T. S. Eliot
Obviously I faced the possibility of not returning when first I considered going. Once faced and settled there really wasn't any good reason to refer to it.
Amelia Earhart
It is a maxim among these lawyers, that whatever hath been done before, may legally be done again: and therefore they take special care to record all the decisions formerly made against common justice and the general reason of mankind.
Jonathan Swift
I think the reason I am important is that I know everything.
Gertrude Stein
