Famous quotes containing the words dispute and/or resolution:

    Your next-door neighbour ... is not a man; he is an environment. He is the barking of a dog; he is the noise of a pianola; he is a dispute about a party wall; he is drains that are worse than yours, or roses that are better than yours.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    It is a part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate; to surmount every difficulty by resolution and contrivance.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
