Maximum Bet

Famous quotes containing the words maximum and/or bet:

    Only at his maximum does an individual surpass all his derivative elements, and become purely himself. And most people never get there. In his own pure individuality a man surpasses his father and mother, and is utterly unknown to them.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    What is faith but a kind of betting or speculation after all? It should be, “I bet that my Redeemer liveth.”
