greater

And the talk slid north, and the talk slid south, With the sliding puffs from the hookah-mouth. Four things greater than all things are,ö Women and Horses and Power and War. Kipling And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die.

—Kipling, (Joseph) Rudyard

One thing alone I charge you. As you live, believe in life! Always human beings will live and progress to a greater, broader and fuller life. The only possible death is to lose belief in this truth simply because the great end comes slowly, because time is long.

—Du Bois,W(illiam) E(dward) B(urghardt)

   Id quo maius non cogitari potest. That than which a greater cannot be thought.

—St Anselm

   A little season of love and laughter, Of light and life, and pleasure and pain, And horror of outer darkness after, And dust returneth to dust again. Then the lesser life shall be as the greater, And the lover of life shall join the hater, And the one thing cometh sooner or later, And no one knoweth the loss or gain.

—Gordon, Adam Lindsay

Something made greater by ourselves and in turn that makes us greater.

—Angelou, Maya originally MayaJohnson

A mesure qu'on a plus d'esprit, on trouve qu'il y a plus d'hommes originaux. Les gens du commun ne trouvent pas de diffe¤  rence entre les hommes. The more intelligent one is, the greater the differences onefindsamong men.Ordinary persons donot perceive differences among men.

—Pascal, Blaise
