Famous quotes containing the words negative and/or charge:
“The idealist’s programme of political or economic reform may be impracticable, absurd, demonstrably ridiculous; but it can never be successfully opposed merely by pointing out that this is the case. A negative opposition cannot be wholly effectual: there must be a competing idealism; something must be offered that is not only less objectionable but more desirable.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
“Today I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god; but who knows my god?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
