INCLINATION
[ Also see Desire Disposition Duty Impulse Instinct Wishes ]

Virtually all men of action incline to Fatality just as most thinkers incline to Providence.
      - Honore de Balzac

In this world the inclination to do things is of more importance than the mere power.
      - Edwin Hubbell Chapin

There is no mind so weak and powerless as not to have its inclinations, and none so guarded as to be without its prepossessions.
      - George Crabbe

As our inclinations, so our opinions.
      - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Almost every one has a predominant inclination, to which his other desires and affections submit, and which governs him, though perhaps with some intervals, though the whole course of his life.
      - David Hume

Our senses, our appetite, and our passions are our lawful and faithful guides in things that relate solely to this life.
      - Samuel Johnson (a/k/a Dr. Johnson) ("The Great Cham of Literature")

From the very first instances of perception, some things are grateful and others unwelcome to us; some things we incline to, and others we fly.
      - John Locke (1)
