C.N. Douglas, comp. Forty Thousand Quotations: Prose and Poetical.
1917.
Crisis
Things at the worst will cease, or else climb upward to what they were before.
Shakespeare.
1
In great straits, and when hope is small, the boldest counsels are the safest.
Livy.
2
There is always a moment in the pyramid of our lives when the apex is reached.
Ninon de Lenclos.
3
There is a moment of difficulty and danger at which flattery and falsehood can no longer deceive, and simplicity itself can no longer be misled.
Junius.
4
The nearer any disease approaches to a crisis, the nearer it is to a cure. Danger and deliverance make their advances together; and it is only in the last push that one or the other takes the lead.
Thomas Paine.
