Famous quotes containing the word results:

    It amazes me when I hear any person prefer blindness to deafness. Such a person must have a terrible dread of being alone. Blindness makes one totally dependent on others, and deprives us of every satisfaction that results from light.
    Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
