Quotations for mission

Every mission constitutes a pledge of duty. [ Mazzini ]

The mission of art is to represent nature not to imitate her. [ W. M. Hunt ]

The moral amelioration of man constitutes the chief mission of woman. [ A. Comte ]

It is the mission of the printer to diffuse light and knowledge by a judicious intermingling of black with white. [ Frederick Douglass ]

Life is a mission. Every other definition of life is false, and leads all who accept it astray. Religion, science, philosophy, all agree in this, that every existence is an aim. [ Mazzini ]

The blossom cannot tell what becomes of its odor; and no man can tell what becomes of his influence and example, that roll away from him, and go beyond his ken in their perilous mission. [ Henry Ward Beecher ]

A majority of women seem to consider themselves sent into the world for the sole purpose of displaying dry goods, and it is only when acting the part of an animated milliner's block that they feel they are performing their appropriate mission. [ Abba Goold Woolson ]

As well might a lovely woman look daily in her mirror, yet not be aware of her beauty, as a great soul be unconscious of the powers with which Heaven has gifted him; not so much for himself, as to enlighten others - a messenger from God Himself, with a high and glorious mission to perform. Woe unto him who abuses that mission! [ Chambers ]

Why has the beneficent Creator scattered over the face of the earth such a profusion of beautiful flowers? Why is it that every landscape has its appropriate flowers, every nation its national flowers, every rural home its home flowers? Why do flowers enter and shed their perfume over every scene of life, from the cradle to the grave? Why are flowers made to utter all voices of joy and sorrow in all varying scenes? It is that flowers have in themselves a real and natural significance; they have a positive relation to man; they correspond to actual emotions; they have their mission - a mission of love and mercy; they have their language, and from the remotest ages this language has found its interpreters. [ Henrietta Dumont ]
