STUBBORNNESS [ Also see Obstinacy ] Mules and human jackasses are proverbially stubborn.       - Thomas Chandler Haliburton (used pseudonym Sam Slick) A man will do more for his stubbornness than for his religion or his country.       - Edgar Watson Howe Many are stubborn in pursuit of the path they have chosen, few in pursuit of the goal.       - Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche The man who can be compelled knows not how to die.       - Seneca (Lucius Annaeus Seneca) If men were stubborn just in proportion as they were right, stubbornness would take her seat among the virtues; but men are generally stubborn just in proportion as they are ignorant and wrong.       - Henry Wheeler Shaw (used pseudonyms Josh Billings and Uncle Esek) Man's worst ill is stubbornness of heart.       - Sophocles A stubborn mind conduces as little to wisdom or even to knowledge, as a stubborn temper to happiness.       - Robert Southey Last Revised: 2008 April 9 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
