A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.
Winston Churchill
Lord, Lord, how subject we old men are to this vice of lying!
William Shakespeare
I am mortified to be told that, in the United States of America, the sale of a book can become a subject of inquiry, and of criminal inquiry too.
Thomas Jefferson
My only fear is that I may live too long. This would be a subject of dread to me.
Thomas Jefferson
All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.
C. S. Lewis
The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure.
George Washington
I never had to choose a subject - my subject rather chose me.
Ernest Hemingway
Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual).
Ayn Rand
I've never met a genius. A genius to me is someone who does well at something he hates. Anybody can do well at something he loves - it's just a question of finding the subject.
Clint Eastwood
I never could have done what I have done without the habits of punctuality, order, and diligence, without the determination to concentrate myself on one subject at a time.
Charles Dickens
Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the regulation of conscience.
Adam Smith
When a subject becomes totally obsolete we make it a required course.
Peter Drucker
It is a cursed evil to any man to become as absorbed in any subject as I am in mine.
Charles Darwin
I'm supposed to have a Ph.D. on the subject of women. But the truth is I've flunked more often than not. I'm very fond of women; I admire them. But, like all men, I don't understand them.
Frank Sinatra
Worthy or not, my life is my subject, and my subject is my life.
Giacomo Casanova
There is no subject on which more dangerous nonsense is talked and thought than marriage.
George Bernard Shaw
I do not paint a portrait to look like the subject, rather does the person grow to look like his portrait.
Salvador Dali
Land: A part of the earth's surface, considered as property. The theory that land is property subject to private ownership and control is the foundation of modern society, and is eminently worthy of the superstructure.
Ambrose Bierce
