Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or points:
“Surrender is a perfectly acceptable alternative in extreme circumstances.”
—Leigh Brackett (1915–1978)
“The men who carry their points do not need to inquire of their constituents what they should say, but are themselves the country which they represent: nowhere are its emotions or opinions so instant and so true as in them; nowhere so pure from a selfish infusion.”
