Fundamental

Famous quotes containing the word fundamental:

    “This declared indifference, but as I must think, covert real zeal for the spread of slavery, I can not but hate. I hate it because of the monstrous injustice of slavery itself.

    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “It’s important to remember that children who are facing a frightening situation have three fundamental concerns: Am I safe? Are you, the people who care for me, safe? How will this affect my daily life?”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “The second fundamental feature of culture is that all culture has an element of striving.”
    —Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
