Famous quotes containing the word offer:
“I would have these good people to recollect, that the laws of this country hold out to foreigners an offer of all that liberty of the press which Americans enjoy, and that, if this liberty be abridged, by whatever means it may be done, the laws and the constitution, and all together, is a mere cheat; a snare to catch the credulous and enthusiastic of every other nation; a downright imposition on the world.”
—William Cobbett (1762–1835)
“A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
“It may be very generous in one person to offer what it would be ungenerous in another to accept.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
