An aphorism is nothing else but the slightest
QUOTES AND APHORISMS ON COMFORT
I'm comfortable being old... being black... being Jewish.
Billy Crystal (1947-, American actor, comedian, director, producer, writer)
The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house as a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.
Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931, Lebanese poet, novelist)
A scholar who cherishes the love of comfort is not fit to be deemed a scholar.
Lao-Tzu (BC 600-?, Chinese philosopher, founder of Taoism)
No woman has ever so comforted the distressed or distressed the comfortable. [On Eleanor Roosevelt]
Clare Boothe Luce (1903-1987, American diplomat, writer)
Do not assume that she who seeks to comfort you now, lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. Her life may also have much sadness and difficulty, that remains far beyond yours. Were it otherwise, she would never have been able to find these words.
Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926, German poet)
I think that there were only two people in my high school that were comfortable there, and I think they are both pumping gas now.
Grant Show (1962-, American actor)
Of all created comforts, God is the lender; you are the borrower, not the owner.
Samuel Rutherford (1600-1661, Scottish pastor)
The only thing I can't stand is discomfort.
Gloria Steinem (1934-, American feminist writer, editor)
To be scared is sensible, to be comfortable is suicidal.
