Quotations for selecting

Human wisdom is the aggregate of all human experience, constantly accumulating and selecting and reorganizing its own materials. [ Judge Joseph Story ]

Persons are oftentimes misled in regard to their choice of dress by attending to the beauty of colors, rather than selecting such colors as may increase their own beauty. [ Shenstone ]
