Famous quotes containing the words virus and/or attacks:

    “Freedom is the most contagious virus known to man.”
    —Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    “There exists, at the bottom of all abasement and misfortune, a last extreme which rebels and joins battle with the forces of law and respectability in a desperate struggle, waged partly by cunning and partly by violence, at once sick and ferocious, in which it attacks the prevailing social order with the pin-pricks of vice and the hammer-blows of crime.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
