Famous quotes containing the words circle and/or point:

    It is a good lesson—though it may often be a hard one—for a man who has dreamed of literary fame, and of making for himself a rank among the world’s dignitaries by such means, to step aside out of the narrow circle in which his claims are recognized, and to find how utterly devoid of all significance, beyond that circle, is all that he achieves, and all he aims at.
    Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864)

    I look upon it as a Point of Morality, to be obliged by those who endeavour to oblige me.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)
