Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or points:

    “The melancholy of having to count souls
    Where they grow fewer and fewer every year
    Is extreme where they shrink to none at all.
    It must be I want life to go on living.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Sometimes apparent resemblances of character will bring two men together and for a certain time unite them. But their mistake gradually becomes evident, and they are astonished to find themselves not only far apart, but even repelled, in some sort, at all their points of contact.”
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
