Famous quotes containing the word view:

    But let the past as nothing be. For the future my view is that the fight must go on.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    Persistence in a single view has never been regarded as a merit in political leaders.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
