Highly

Famous quotes containing the word highly:

    Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    Thorstein Veblen (1857–1929)
