The value of a sentiment is the amount of
sacrifice you are prepared to make for it.
? John Galsworthy

covering brutality.

We're a sentimental people.
We like a few kind words better
than millions of dollars
given in a humiliating way.

?Rebecca West
If a man remembers what is right at the sign
of profit, is ready to lay down his life in the
face of danger, and does not forget sentiments
he has repeated all his life when he has been
in straitened circumstances for a long time,
he may be said to be a complete man.
?Confucius
Must be out-of-doors enough to get
experience of wholesome reality,
as a ballast to thought and sentiment.
Health requires this relaxation,
this aimless life.
?Henry David Thoreau
The barrenest of all mortals
is the sentimentalist.
?Thomas Carlyle
Sentimentality--
That's what we call the
sentiment we don't share.
?Graham Greene
Sentiment is the poetry
of the imagination.
?Alphonse de Lamartine
Sentiment is intellectualized emotion;
emotion precipitated, as it were,
in pretty crystals by the fancy.
?James Russell Lowell
