Happiness consumes itself like a flame. It cannot burn for ever, it must go out, and the presentiment of its end destroys it at its very peak.
August Strindberg

Guy Moszkowski
Inequality is as dear to the American heart as liberty itself.
William Dean Howells
The law itself follows gold.
Sextus Propertius
Education by itself is not going to solve this problem. These heavy drinkers ... don't think they have a problem.
Henry Wechsler
Anal sex is anal sex. It doesn't make any difference whether you're a woman or a man. It is the act itself and not the fact of who's engaging in it.
Larry Parham
We had to start by sensitizing communities. We needed to convince them of the advantages of bringing the child back, to the community, to the family and to the child itself.
Gopal Sharma
All his anxiety resolved itself into a sigh and dissolved into apathy and drowsiness.
Ivan Goncharov
These are birds that are already endangered, and any further pressure either from the virus itself or misguided attempts to control it through culling would be disastrous.
Andy Evans

David Brogan
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque

We feel they are better off using the VITA sites, and we try to encourage that through the guide itself.
Donna Klein
The pavilion itself could be the costliest part of renovation of this site.

Victor Smith
In the last year, Best Buy has pulled itself up by its bootstraps.
Ursula Moran

John Curtice
The well of true wit is truth itself.
George Meredith
Happiness is itself a kind of gratitude.
Joseph Wood Krutch

Gordon Ritchie
It came from my passion to keep the music itself alive.
Bob Everhart
International box office really used to be the icing on the cake. Now it is often the cake itself.

Councilman Tom Poole

Bartholini
We've got Hanover this week. We'll let [the possibility of a playoff appearance] take care of itself.
Mark Robinson
This is a law that did not get spelled out very clearly, so it's been very, very difficult to implement. There was so little directive in the initiative itself, it has put a lot pressure on agencies and local governments to have to interpret it.
Teresa Schilling
That which we persist in doing becomes easier, not that the task itself has become easier, but that our ability to perform it has improved.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A lot of what you heard today was a complaint about the opinion itself--the fact that people would be so dastardly as to complain about tax increases.
Sen. Kenneth Cuccinelli
He's a big fella. It just doesn't lend itself to the symmetry of the park.

A good advertisement is one which sells the product without drawing attention to itself.
David M. Ogilvy
I think the tree is an element of regeneration which in itself is a concept of time.

Menander Of Athens
We see it as a desperate attempt by a gubernatorial candidate who is behind in the polls and has missed every mark it has set for itself.
Brian Winfield
We had lot of players leave, lots of new players come and a new coach -- it's a team that has to find itself.
Giovanni Trapattoni
He's got loads of talent. Being chosen as a pre-season All-American is an accomplishment in itself.
Pete Stenberg
A tax cut by itself would suggest that companies' cash flows would improve and those increased cash flows could be used for investment. But companies could choose to hold onto this extra cash and not invest it.
Arnold Berman
If the thunderstorm parks itself above the summits, there's a good chance for snow.
Robert D. Ballard
I was not prepared for the actual process itself; having to go to the shop and having some molds done.

Bernard M. Baruch
I looked like Robin Hood going through the 18, ... an adventure in itself.
Gil Morgan
We got it on, ... The fight itself was a tough fight for both of us. It was hard.
Joe Frazier
Mediocrity does not see higher than itself. But talent instantly recognizes the genius.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
When one loves somebody everything is clear - where to go, what to do - it all takes care of itself and one doesn't have to ask anybody about anything.

John Darby
Censorship reflects a society's lack of confidence in itself.
Potter Stewart
The tree itself just has this glow about it. You can tell it's significant when you approach it.
Ben Phillips
Am I going home to idleness? No, no. My feet and hands may be still, not so the mind--that has its aspirations yet, and it will work, for it has a law unto itself. Idleness is one thing, doing is another.
Lew Wallace
No important institution is ever merely what the law makes it. It accumulates about itself traditions, conventions, ways of behaviour, which are not less formidable in their influence.
Harold Laki
I finally came to a place where I decided that this is my body and this is as far as this is going to go. And it happened to work out that way. Whether it's because I believe that or it would have happened that way, who knows? But believing that in itself was a positive thing for me.
Chris Potter
With an outside investor, there could be better governance over the scheme, which could get its hands on bad loans the bank itself couldn't have.
Hironari Nozaki
This doesn't solve the mystery by itself, but it brings us closer to a reasonable explanation of what happened.
Andrew Jarvis
I think to be in the elite group of five in each category is an achievement in itself and if you are the only Asian, then I think you have more than one reason to be satisfied.
Inzamam ul
There's something that's keeping it from collapsing on itself.
Lucy Mcfadden
Who are they blaming as they are part of business, which is itself part of the commission. They [the BMF] must appoint people who will do the work and not complain in public.
Membathisi Mdladlana
The ACL has little, if any, ability to heal itself, and if it's torn it now leaves you with a functional disability. You can't run, jump or cut.
Angelo Colosimo
Frankly, if there's money to be made the province would have involved itself.
Ferdinand E. Marcos
Early voting in and of itself is a good thing but the way this legislation was crafted ... has created the opportunity for voter fraud.
Audra Miller
What South Africa has concluded is not the mediation itself but a report on the current phase of the mediation.
Ronnie Mamoepa

Graeme Edge
A window of opportunity won't open itself.
Dave Weinbaum
Great ability develops and reveals itself increasingly with every new assignment.
Baltasar Gracian
Fools laugh at others. Wisdom laughs at itself.

KFI needs to distance itself from Mr. Handel's unbelievable insensitivity by issuing a formal apology and a reprimand.
Sabiha Khan
A company can operate successfully for 200 years only by continually reinventing itself.
Charles O. Holliday
The second half speaks for itself. We put too much pressure on our guards.
Kurt Melton

Theodor W. Adorno
I think today's pullback came because the market got a little ahead of itself.
Scott Graham
As a matter of fact, we cannot expect much from the lights-out project in itself, and the campaign may affect our daily work.
Masanori Shishido
The [U.S.] supply is still sorting itself out.
Jack Roney

Jim Jeffords
When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
Henry J. Kaiser

Christine Varney
Tolerance always has limits - it cannot tolerate what is itself actively intolerant.
Sidney Hook
It appears AMD has engaged in a price war, where it is essentially bidding against itself.
Charlie Glavin
The approaches have been straightened out and smoothed so you don't have to hit bumps going up to it. The crossing itself was tearing the under-carriages of cars out. It was so bad.
John Mckay
In the house itself, the gable is much lower than in the painting -- you can only stand up just barely at the apex.

John Cronin
It's never needed vindication. It was that fancy stuff that needed to prove itself.
Wellington Mara
If the story is about how this is some kind of equal exchange, well, the field isn't equal. That was the leaders of the party and the Douglas administration itself.
Scudder Parker
In summer, the song sings itself.
William Carlos Williams
Once you get the plasmids inside the cell, the virus assembles itself. It only takes a couple of days.

James Bixler
That can be a lot of the challenge is the atmosphere itself.
Darah Huffman
Soccer speaks for itself. It doesn't matter where you're from.
Gabe Taboada
The court could have taken it upon itself to fix a mistake. Instead, they put the burden on us. Ironically, they cited the same rules they ignored in sealing all of these files in the first place.
Ken Armstrong
It turned out we were all wrong, we had not adequately anticipated, ... The thing that changed this was not Katrina itself, the thing that was the catastrophic event was the failure of the levee.

James Ward
France, which needs to find itself and come together, cannot move forward into the future without facing its past with courage.
Azouz Begag

Justin Horowitz
The teacher is like the candle, which lights others in consuming itself.
Italian Proverb
The cliché is a hackneyed idiom that hopes that it can still palm itself off as a fresh response.
John Gross
It presents a challenge in itself. You can't see the conductor so you're on your own. It's been a challenge for us and the orchestra.
Kerry Wilson
If we admit our depression openly and freely, those around us get from it an experience of freedom rather than the depression itself.
Dr. Rollo May
The settlement issue is important to address because without an effective process there could be an erosion of confidence in the product itself.
Robert Pickel
The market despises extremes, ... That, in itself, causes the reverse.
James Dines
It's a typical spring training injury that resolves itself.
Koco Eaton
This is an important step for Europe. It's a tool that Europe is giving itself that will be independent of the American system, although it will be [technologically] compatible with the American system.
Franco Bonacina
Right now, the biggest barrier to the Internet is the Internet itself.
Scott Alexander

Robert Golden
The result was a board that was more engaged, held itself to a higher level of accountability and was prepared to make decisions and advance critical initiatives.
Scott Aakre
I find it amazing, the coverage and interest in this (story), but it feeds on itself. I think it was completely mishandled by (Cheney) and by his staff.
Carlos Valdez
One thing about the race itself is that it's totally unpredictable and that's why it's so fun to watch.
Beth Wilson
Never chase a lie. Let it alone, and it will run itself to death. I can work out a good character much faster than anyone can lie me out of it.
Lyman Beecher
If you take care of your character, your reputation will take care of itself.
African American Proverb
The memorial itself has been an afterthought. It's astounding to me that the only thing they have up there after four years are a couple of posters.

Robert Thompson
If prejudice could reason, it would dispel itself.

Paul J. Meyer
Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with.
Mark Twain
We didn't get serious about security early enough. The Internet carefully delivers that virus to your door because its job is to deliver packets and not to inquire whether the application is good for you. The 'Net by itself is doing what it should do, but we don't have intrinsic integrity and authentication. We didn't do that way back when, and it should have been done.
Scott Bradner
Christianity is always called to seek justice, but it bears within the impulse of love, that goes beyond justice itself.
Benedict Xvi

Sharon Levine
This is a whole powerful computing microcosm by itself.
Michael Willett
Clearly, a civilization that feels guilty for everything it is and does will lack the energy and conviction to defend itself.

Derek Walcott
The crime is a misdemeanor in itself and it has to be obviously be committed in the officer's presence.
Dwight Mitchell

Tim Woehler
That's a tremendous program in itself.
Dick Rundle
The board is on track in this instance in conducting itself appropriately.
John Inglesino
I guess the name of that trail speaks for itself.

Bernard, St.
Of itself, it won't have an effect on the share price.
Chris Weafer
Intelligence has no attachment to the opinion it has formed, but only to the truth it may contain; and, knowing that error insinuates itself under the guise of truth, through the same inlets by which truth is admitted, it is ever diffident of its att.
Mary Worley Montagu
Censorship feeds the dirty mind more than the four-letter word itself.
Dick Cavett
This indicates, I think, the end product of a culture of cover-up and an inability of the ministry to properly investigate itself.
