Narrowest Point

Famous quotes containing the words narrowest and/or point:

    I can still stand on life’s narrowest footing: but who would I be were I to show you this art. Would you like to see a ropedancer?
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    We should have learnt by now that laws and court decisions can only point the way. They can establish criteria of right and wrong. And they can provide a basis for rooting out the evils of bigotry and racism. But they cannot wipe away centuries of oppression and injustice—however much we might desire it.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
