Odd Extension

Famous quotes containing the words odd and/or extension:

“Borrowers of books—those mutilators of collections, spoilers of the symmetry of shelves, and creators of odd volumes.”
—Charles Lamb (1775–1834)

“Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man’s nature—opposition to it, is [in?] his love of justice.... Repeal the Missouri compromise—repeal all compromises—repeal the declaration of independence—repeal all past history, you still can not repeal human nature. It still will be the abundance of man’s heart, that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
