of giving it expression

If there is an existing purpose to suppress a certain tendency instead of giving it expression, then this suppression should be so successful that nothing at all of the latter comes to light; or it could even fail, so that the suppressed tendency attains to full expression.
— from A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis by Sigmund Freud

of God is ever

Yea, and more homely: for all these may waste and wear away, but the Goodness of God is ever whole; and more near to us, without any likeness; for truly our Lover desireth that our soul cleave to Him with all its might, and that we be ever-more cleaving to His Goodness.
— from Revelations of Divine Love by of Norwich Julian

of grass in every

— from The Art of Public Speaking by J. Berg (Joseph Berg) Esenwein

of government is entirely

But an aristocracy chiefly approaches to a secret change by its being destroyed by degrees, as we [1307b] have already said of all governments in general; and this happens from the cause of the alteration being trifling; for whenever anything which in the least regards the state is treated with contempt, after that something else, and this of a little more consequence, will be more easily altered, until the whole fabric of government is entirely subverted, which happened in the government of Thurium; for the law being that they should continue soldiers for five years, some young men of a martial disposition, who were in great esteem amongst their officers, despising those who had the management of public affairs, and imagining they could easily accomplish their intention, first endeavoured to abolish this law, with a view of having it lawful to continue the same person perpetually in the military, perceiving that the people would readily appoint them.
— from Politics: A Treatise on Government by Aristotle

object given in empirical

— from The Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant

Your resentment against these same persons when they became private citizens still continuing, we suffered men of the highest families and rank to die or go into exile.
— from The History of Rome, Books 01 to 08 by Livy

of God is exactly

What happens to the Christian who compares his nature with that of God is exactly what happened to Don Quixote, who depreciated his own prowess because his head was filled with the wondrous deeds of the heroes of chivalrous romance.
— from Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

of getting into exact

Then came the careful evolutions of getting into exact column for entering the harbor.
— from With the Battle Fleet Cruise of the Sixteen Battleships of the United States Atlantic Fleet from Hampton Roads to the Golden Gate, December, 1907-May, 1908 by Franklin Matthews

of grace in every

"You have never seen such a girl, so full of grace in every movement, and still with such an interesting abruptness; peculiar, full of spontaneity; one moment gloomy, repellant almost to rudeness, then again so kindly cordial, so truly womanly and compassionate; all against a background of incurable sadness--in short, charming, and comparable with nothing else in this world!"
— from Boris Lensky by Ossip Schubin

of gravity is equal

Galileo and Huyghens who followed him found that the oscillations of a simple pendulum are isochronous at all places where the force of gravity is equal, and that the time of oscillation depends on the length of the pendulum—the shorter the pendulum the shorter time of oscillation, and vice versâ .
— from Stargazing: Past and Present by Lockyer, Norman, Sir

of God in every

Such a practice subverts the command of God in every case where it obtains, and if it should become universal, would set aside and annihilate all obedience to the command to be baptized.
— from A Book of Gems, or, Choice selections from the writings of Benjamin Franklin by Benjamin Franklin

of good in enjoying

So if the moral philosophers that have spent such an infinite quantity of debate touching Good and the highest good, had cast their eye abroad upon nature and beheld the appetite that is in all things to receive and to give; the one motion affecting preservation and the other multiplication; which appetites are most evidently seen in living creatures in the pleasure of nourishment and generation; and in man do make the aptest and most natural division of all his desires, being either of sense of pleasure or sense of power; and in the universal frame of the world are figured, the one in the beams of heaven which issue forth, and the other in the lap of the earth which takes in: and again if they had observed the motion of congruity or situation of the parts in respect of the whole, evident in so many particulars; and lastly if they had considered the motion (familiar in attraction of things) to approach to that which is higher in the same kind; when by these observations so easy and concurring in natural philosophy, they should have found out this quaternion of good, in enjoying or fruition, effecting or operation, consenting or proportion, and approach or assumption; they would have saved and abridged much of their long and wandering discourses of pleasure, virtue, duty, and religion.
— from Valerius Terminus: Of the Interpretation of Nature by Francis Bacon
