Famous quotes containing the words election and/or results:

    “Savages cling to a local god of one tribe or town. The broad ethics of Jesus were quickly narrowed to village theologies, which preach an election or favoritism.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Nothing is as difficult as to achieve results in this world if one is filled full of great tolerance and the milk of human kindness. The person who achieves must generally be a one-ideaed individual, concentrated entirely on that one idea, and ruthless in his aspect toward other men and other ideas.”
    —Corinne Roosevelt Robinson (1861–1933)
