Exhausted Quotes - Page 6

  Joyce Carol Oates

Y la propia ambición moral debe presumirse presente en el subconsciente, aun cuando el yo consciente parezca rechazarla, mientras la sociedad disponga de recursos para ponerla en acción; del mismo modo que el salvavidas presume que existe vida en el ahogado hasta que ha agotado sus recursos para recuperar la respiración.

  William Ernest Hocking

• There is no Christian Gospel if history simply unwinds into a meaningless puddle, if the cosmos simply escapes into a cataclysmic black hole, or if the universe finally dies of exhausted energy. Without belief in a biblical eschatology, there is no Christian hope. Without a sense of perfect moral judgment in the end, the human heart is homeless.

• Money spent on vegetative patients is money not spent on preventive care, such as flu shots and mammograms. Each night in an ICU bed for such patients is a night that another patient with a genuine prognosis for recovery is denied such high-end care. Every dollar exhausted on patients who will never wake up again is a dollar not devoted to finding a cure for cancer.
