Famous quotes containing the word result:

    “Surely all art is the result of one’s having been in danger, of having gone through an experience all the way to the end, where no one can go any further.”
    —Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926)

    “A common and natural result of an undue respect for law is, that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys, and all, marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “No political party can ever make prohibition effective. A political party implies an adverse, an opposing, political party. To enforce criminal statutes implies substantial unanimity in the community. This is the result of the jury system. Hence the futility of party prohibition.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
