Famous quotes containing the words points and/or interest:

    Every man has to learn the points of the compass again as often as he awakes, whether from sleep or any abstraction.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Justice is a moral virtue, merely because it has that tendency to the good of mankind, and indeed is nothing but an artificial invention to that purpose. The same may be said of allegiance, of the laws of nations, of modesty, and of good manners. All these are mere human contrivances for the interest of society.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
