A Quote by Heywood Broun

It is ridiculous to say that Sacco and Vanzetti are being railroaded to the chair. The situation is much worse than that. This is a thing done cold-bloodedly and with deliberation. But care and deliberation do not guarantee justice.

These two rational faculties may be designated the Scientific Faculty and the Calculative Faculty respectively; since calculation is the same as deliberation, and deliberation is never exercised about things that are invariable, so that the Calculative Faculty is a separate part of the rational half of the soul.

Aristotle

Nowadays not even a suicide kills himself in desperation. Before taking the step he deliberates so long and so carefully that he literally chokes with thought. It is even questionable whether he ought to be called a suicide, since it is really thought which takes his life. He does not die with deliberation but from deliberation.

Soren Kierkegaard

Because God's justice is inexorable, it is hard to obtain forgiveness for sins committed with complete deliberation.

Marcus Eremita

No deliberation made by a single person will be successful; the nature of the work which a sovereign has to do is to be inferred from the consideration of both the visible and invisible causes. The clearance of doubts as to whatever is susceptible of two opinions, and the inference of the whole when only a part is seen is possible of decision only by ministers. Hence the king shall sit at deliberation with persons of wide intellect.

Chanakya

Deliberation is a good thing when it comes to fighting wars.

Rahm Emanuel

To speak a bold truth, I am, after much mature deliberation, inclined to suspect that the public voice hath, in all ages, done much injustice to Fortune, and hath convicted her of many facts in which she had not the least concern.

Henry Fielding

I don't think either party has any idea what's headed their way. Their business is to remain mired in process. They call it deliberation, thoughtful, reasonable deliberation. Trump doesn't know any of that. Trump is not a process guy. To him, process is delay. Process is obfuscation. Process is incompetence. People engaging in process are a bunch of people masking the fact they don't know what they're doing, and he has no time for 'em and no patience.

Rush Limbaugh

The strokes of the pen need deliberation as much as the sword needs swiftness.

Julia Ward Howe

After much deliberation I have made the decision to retire from playing international football.

Mile Jedinak

I went through much deliberation on choosing my next TV role after 'Reply 1988.'

Lee Hye-ri

Life is not long, and too much of it must not pass in idle deliberation how it shall be spent.

Samuel Johnson

Shilpa keeps asking me to practice yoga, and after much deliberation, I have added it into my regime.

Shamita Shetty

As long as the same passions and interests subsist among mankind, the questions of war and peace, of justice and policy, which were debated in the councils of antiquity, will frequently present themselves as the subject of modern deliberation.
