Famous quotes containing the words points of, points and/or interest:

    The two great points of difference between a democracy and a republic are: first, the delegation of the government, in the latter, to a small number of citizens elected by the rest; secondly, the greater number of citizens and greater sphere of country over which the latter may be extended.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    A bath and a tenderloin steak. Those are the high points of a man’s life.
    Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)

    As with our colleges, so with a hundred “modern improvements”; there is an illusion about them; there is not always a positive advance. The devil goes on exacting a compound interest to the last for his early share and numerous succeeding investments in them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
