Famous quotes with Means

If the end does not justify the means - what can?

Edward Abbey
It seems difficult, sometimes, to believe that there was a time when sentiments now become habitual, sentiments that imply not only the original imperative of conduct, but the original metaphysic of living, were by no means altogether habitual.

Lascelles Abercrombie
If you read quickly to get through a poem to what it means, you have missed the body of the poem.

M. H. Abrams
I understand that postmodern literature probably means people like DeLillo, The Fiction Collective, but I don't get it that those writers are really influenced by postmodern theorists.

Kathy Acker
What you think means more than anything else in your life. More than what you earn, more than where you live, more than your social position, and more than what anyone else may think about you.

George Matthew Adams
