Famous quotes containing the word results:

    “For every life and every act
    Consequence of good and evil can be shown
    And as in time results of many deeds are blended
    So good and evil in the end become confounded.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “... dependence upon material possessions inevitably results in the destruction of human character.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    “Life and language are alike sacred. Homicide and verbicide—that is, violent treatment of a word with fatal results to its legitimate meaning, which is its life—are alike forbidden.”
    —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
