Famous quotes containing the words negative and/or terms:
“The idealists 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 (18641929)
“For my part, if a lie may do thee grace,
Ill gild it with the happiest terms I have.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
