Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or points:

    At the extreme north, the voyagers are obliged to dance and act plays for employment.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Wi’ joy unfeigned brothers and sisters meet,
    An’ each for other’s weelfare kindly spiers:
    The social hours, swift-winged, unnoticed fleet;
    Each tells the uncos that he sees or hears;
    The parents, partial, eye their hopeful years;
    Anticipation forward points the view:
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
