Nominal Root

Famous quotes containing the words nominal and/or root:

“Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often a real loser—in fees, expenses, and waste of time. As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

“Under an oak, whose antique root peeps out
Upon the brook that brawls along this wood.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
