Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or points:

    “No matter how corrupt and unjust a convict may be, he loves fairness more than anything else. If the people placed over him are unfair, from year to year he lapses into an embittered state characterized by an extreme lack of faith.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “If I were in the unenviable position of having to study my work my points of departure would be the “Naught is more real ...” and the “Ubi nihil vales ...” both already in Murphy and neither very rational.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
