Famous quotes containing the word absolutely:
“You must, to get through life well, practice industry with economy, never create a debt for anything that is not absolutely necessary, and if you make a promise to pay money at a day certain, be sure to comply with it. If you do not, you lay yourself liable to have your feelings injured and your reputation destroyed with the just imputation of violating your word.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“The same strength of character which helps a man resist love, helps to make it more violent and lasting too. People of unsettled minds are always driven about with passions, but never absolutely filled with any.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“If it was not absolutely necessary, it was the foolishest thing ever done.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
