Divided Difference

Famous quotes containing the words divided and/or difference:

    From time immemorial the men of the town have been famous seamen, and have divided their energies between fishing and hating the English.

    There is all the difference in the world between the criminal’s avoiding the public eye and the civil disobedient’s taking the law into his own hands in open defiance. This distinction between an open violation of the law, performed in public, and a clandestine one is so glaringly obvious that it can be neglected only by prejudice or ill will.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
