Ortega Y Gasset Quotes

For Me, Then, Nobility Is Synonymous With A Life Of Effort, Ever Set On Excelling Oneself, In Passing Beyond What One Is To What One Sets Up As A Duty And An Obligation. In This Way The Noble Life Stands Opposed To The Common Or Inert Life, Which Reclines Statically Upon Itself, Condemned To Perpetual Immobility, Unless An External Force Compels It To Come Out Of Itself. Hence We Apply The Term Mass To This Kind Of Man- Not So Much Because Of His Multitude As Because Of His Inertia.
