Famous quotes containing the words study and/or species:
“You’ll come to learn a great deal if you study the Insignificant in depth.”
—Odysseus Elytis (b. 1911)
“Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man’s appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
