Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or points:
“I would rather go to any extreme than suffer anything that is unworthy of my reputation, or of that of my crown.”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
“Wonderful “Force of Public Opinion!” We must act and walk in all points as it prescribes; follow the traffic it bids us, realise the sum of money, the degree of “influence” it expects of us, or we shall be lightly esteemed; certain mouthfuls of articulate wind will be blown at us, and this what mortal courage can front?”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
