Famous quotes containing the words effect on and/or effect:

    Before the effect one believes in different causes than one does after the effect.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The law before us, my lords, seems to be the effect of that practice of which it is intended likewise to be the cause, and to be dictated by the liquor of which it so effectually promotes the use; for surely it never before was conceived by any man entrusted with the administration of public affairs, to raise taxes by the destruction of the people.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
