en All human actions have one or more of these seven causes : chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason, passion, desire.

en Nothing is so powerful as an insight into human nature . . . what compulsions drive a man, what instincts dominate his action . . . if you know these things about a man you can touch him at the core of his being.
  William Bernbach

en Habit is a second nature that destroys the first. But what is nature? Why is habit not natural? I am very much afraid that nature itself is only a first habit, just as habit is a second nature.
  Blaise Pascal

en You never want to give a fan a chance to find out whether it was passion or habit. I think for the great majority it's still a passion, but others have discovered that maybe it was something else. And so, as much as this can be problematic in the U.S. and that's where it's usually talked about, I think it's also a problem in this country.

en All, all is theft, all is unceasing and rigorous competition in nature; the desire to make off with the substance of others is the foremost / the most legitimate / passion nature has bred into us and, without doubt, the most agreeable one.

  Norman Mailer

en The framers of the constitution knew human nature as well as we do. They too had lived in dangerous days; they too knew the suffocating influence of orthodoxy and standardized thought. They weighed the compulsions for restrained speech and thought against the abuses of liberty. They chose liberty.

en One will rarely err if extreme actions be ascribed to vanity, ordinary actions to habit, and mean actions to fear.
  Friedrich Nietzsche

en Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.
  Marcus Tullius Cicero

en It is the human wish to be told lies that keep us as primitive morally and socially as we are. (...) I am persuaded that a lie grounded in human desire is too powerful for mere reason to kill.

en Every action must be due to one or other of seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reasoning, anger, or appetite.
