Quotations for ingredient

Patience is a necessary ingredient of genius. [ Benjamin Disraeli ]

Every inordinate cup is unblessed, and the ingredient is a devil. [ William Shakespeare ]

Pedants are men who would appear to be learned, without the necessary ingredient of knowledge. [ Bancroft ]

Men and brethren, a simple trust in God is the most essential ingredient in moral sublimity of character. [ Richard Fuller ]

Prudence is a necessary ingredient in all the virtues, without which they degenerate into folly and excess. [ Jeremy Collier ]

Surprise is so essential an ingredient of wit that no wit will bear repetition; - at least, the original electrical feeling produced by any piece of wit can never be renewed. [ Sydney Smith ]

A little grain of the romance is no ill ingredient to preserve and exalt the dignity of human nature, without which it is apt to degenerate into everything that is sordid, vicious and low. [ Swift ]

No man is more miserable than he that hath no adversity. That man is not tried, whether he be good or bad, and God never crowns those virtues which are only faculties and dispositions, but every act of virtue is an ingredient into reward - God so dresses us for heaven. [ Jeremy Taylor ]

Method, we are aware, is an essential ingredient in every discourse designed for the instruction of mankind; but it ought never to force itself on the attention as an object - never appear to be an end instead of an instrument; or beget a suspicion of the sentiments being introduced for the sake of the method, not the method for the sentiments. [ Robert Hall ]
