Famous quotes containing the word immediately:
“I find that the respectable man, so called, has immediately drifted from his position, and despairs of his country, when his country has more reason to despair of him. He forthwith adopts one of the candidates ... as the only available one, thus proving that he is himself available for any purposes of the demagogue. His vote is of no more worth than that of any unprincipled foreigner or hireling native, who may have been bought.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Were anyone nowadays to venture to say, “Whoever is not for me is against me,” he would immediately have everyone against him. MThis sentiment does credit to our times.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
