Famous quotes containing the words limbo and/or cases:
“He moved with the shades of the dead and the dead-born and the unborn and the never-to-be-born, in a Limbo purged of desire.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“After all, the practical reason why, when the power is once in the hands of the people, a majority are permitted, and for a long period continue, to rule is not because they are most likely to be in the right, nor because this seems fairest to the minority, but because they are physically the strongest. But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
