Objection

Famous quotes containing the word objection:

    The original of the picture you inclose, and which I return, was taken from life, and is, I think, a very true one; though my wife, and many others, do not. My impression is that their objection arises from the disordered condition of the hair.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    I should have no objection to go over the same life from its beginning to the end: requesting only the advantage authors have, of correcting in a second edition the faults of the first.
    Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    I have found it to be the most serious objection to coarse labors long continued, that they compelled me to eat and drink coarsely also.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
