Quotations regarding 'Comfort'

Choose a letter: 
Truth is meant to save you first, and the comfort comes afterward.
Georges Bernanos, French Author (1888-1948)
But you've got to have money for comfort, which obviously doesn't matter as much when you're young, but even so. I always like to bloody eat well and be warm. Have a drink when I want it.
Jeffrey Bernard, British Journalist (1932-1997)
This legislation gives parents some comfort that their children won't fall prey to child predators while using the Internet at schools and libraries that receive federal dollars for Internet services.
Judy Biggert, American Politician (1937-  )
The whole world appears to me like a huge vacuum, a vast empty space, whence nothing desirable, or at least satisfactory, can possibly be derived; and I long daily to die more and more to it; even though I obtain not that comfort from spiritual things which I earnestly desire.
David Brainerd, American Clergyman
It used to be that a son could look at the father, and pretty much know what life was gonna be like as an adult. There was confidence in that, and comfort in that, and frustration also.
Clancy Brown, American Actor (1959-  )
If you put yourself in a position where you have to stretch outside your comfort zone, then you are forced to expand your consciousness.
Les Brown, American Businessman
Money, if it does not bring you happiness, will at least help you be miserable in comfort.

H. Jackson Brown, Jr., American Author
How many desolate creatures on the earth have learnt the simple dues of fellowship and social comfort, in a hospital.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning, English Poet (1806-1861)
If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no more for us than a golden slipper on a gouty foot.
John Bunyan, English Clergyman (1628-1688)
The ongoing strife in Iraq, and the billions of dollars that the President is seeking to continue that war, give me little comfort that this Administration has learned from its mistakes in Iraq.
Robert Byrd, American Politician (1917-  )
My favorite book of all time is Cold Comfort Farm, by Stella Gibbons.
Meg Cabot, American Author (1967-  )
So you have to force yourself out of a comfort zone and really try to figure out what are the key ingredients, the key skill sets, the key perspectives that are necessary, and then figure out a way to attract the very best people to fill those particular roles.
Steve Case, American Businessman (1958-  )
Tis the only comfort of the miserable to have partners in their woes.
Miguel De Cervantes, Spanish Novelist (1547-1616)
The whole story of the comfort women, the system of forced sexual slavery, the medical experiments of Unit 731, is not something that is in the US psyche. That is changing because many books are coming out.
Iris Chang, Chinese Historian (1968-2004)
This is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure.
Winston Churchill, English Statesman (1874-1965)
We find comfort among those who agree with us - growth among those who don't.
Frank Howard Clark, American Writer
Man seeks to escape himself in myth, and does so by any means at his disposal. Drugs, alcohol, or lies. Unable to withdraw into himself, he disguises himself. Lies and inaccuracy give him a few moments of comfort.
Jean Cocteau, French Director (1889-1963)
If a hermit lives in a state of ecstasy, his lack of comfort becomes the height of comfort. He must relinquish it.
Jean Cocteau, French Director (1889-1963)
The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort.
Confucius, Chinese Philosopher
