Famous quotes containing the word fixed:

    “The word “obligation” is very seldom in my thoughts, and consequently very seldom is it uttered by my tongue. For I am satisfied that whoever hath the word “obligation” continually in his mouth hath the love of tyranny steadily fixed in his heart.”
    —Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
