Famous quotes containing the words function and/or object:

    My function in life is not to be a politician in Parliament: it is to get something done.
    Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)

    I wish you would not let him plunge into a ôvortex of
    Dissipation.ö I do not object to the Thing, but I cannot bear the
    expression; it is such thorough novel slang—and so old, that I
    dare say Adam met with it in the first novel he opened.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)
