Famous quotes containing the word points:

    “Sometimes apparent resemblances of character will bring two men together and for a certain time unite them. But their mistake gradually becomes evident, and they are astonished to find themselves not only far apart, but even repelled, in some sort, at all their points of contact.”
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

    “If I were in the unenviable position of having to study my work my points of departure would be the “Naught is more real ...” and the “Ubi nihil vales ...” both already in Murphy and neither very rational.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
