Famous quotes containing the word ideals:
“Our chaotic economic situation has convinced so many of our young people that there is no room for them. They become uncertain and restless and morbid; they grab at false promises, embrace false gods and judge things by treacherous values. Their insecurity makes them believe that tomorrow doesnt matter and the ineffectualness of their lives makes them deny the ideals which we of an older generation acknowledged.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892?)
“People with high ideals dont necessarily make good politicians. If clean politics is so important, we should leave the job to scientists and the clergy.”
—Michio Watanabe (b. 1923)
“My own ideals for the university are those of a genuine democracy and serious scholarship. These two, indeed, seem to go together.”
—Woodrow Wilson (18561924)
