Sacrifice Quotes (page 18)

Yossarian marveled that children could suffer such barbaric sacrifice without evincing the slightest hint of fear or pain. He took for granted that they did submit so stoically.

The noble title of "dissident" must be earned rather than claimed; it connotes sacrifice and risk rather than mere disagreement. Christopher Hitchens
You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man's age-old dream -- the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order --or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. Regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would sacrifice freedom for security have embarked on this downward path. Ronald Reagan
Mitch Albom quote: "With endless time, nothing is special. With no loss or..."
With endless time, nothing is special. With no loss or sacrifice, we can’t appreciate what we have Mitch Albom

Champagne was discovered by a Catholic monk," said Bernard. "Took one swallow and burst out of his cellar yelling, 'I'm drinking stars, I'm drinking stars!' Tequila was invented by a bunch of brooding Indians. Into human sacrifice and pyramids. Somewhere between champagne and tequila is the secret history of Mexico, just as somewhere between beef jerky and Hostess Twinkies is the secret history of America. Or aren't you in the mood for epigrams? Tom Robbins

I don't think we can do that."At these prices you should bring the cow out and have a ritual sacrifice atthe table. Just do it." I handed him the menu. He took it. Laurell K. Hamilton
Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who condescended to come into this world of misery, struggle, and pain to touch men's hearts for good, to teach the way of eternal life, and to give Himself as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind. How different, how empty our lives would be without Him. How infinite is our opportunity for exaltation made possible through His redeeming love. Gordon B. Hinckley
It was nonsense to talk about its being a sacrifice to come there; for if it were, they would not see so many grasping to be members of Congress. Davy Crockett
Miss Chancellor would have been much happier if the movements she was interested in could have been carried on only by people she liked, and if revolutions, somehow, didn't always have to begin with one's self--with internal convulsions, sacrifices, executions. Henry James
either you are so underdeveloped that you can't see all that you can do, or you won't sacrifice your ease, your vanity, or whatever it is, to do it... Leo Tolstoy
So Father Ring went off in the lofty mood of a man who has defended a principle at a great sacrifice to himself, but that very night he began to brood and he continued to brood till that sickly looking voluptuary of a ten-shilling note took on all the radiance and charm of a virgin of seventeen. Frank O'Connor
