Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or left:
“I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
—Henry David David (1817–1862)
“To have friends, you know, one need only be good-natured; but when a man has no enemy left there must be something mean about him.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
