Highest Point

Famous quotes containing the words highest and/or point:

    No man ever quite believes in any other man. One may believe in an idea absolutely, but not in a man. In the highest confidence there is always a flavor of doubt—a feeling, half instinctive and half logical, that, after all, the scoundrel may have something up his sleeve.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    I would rather produce my passions than brood over them at my expense; they grow languid when they have vent and expression. It is better that their point should operate outwardly than be turned against us.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
