Famous quotes containing the words main, office and/or holders:
“The aphorism wants to be at the same time both main line and off beat.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The office of the Vice-President is a greater honor than I ever dreamed of attaining.”
—Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886)
“The doctrine of those who have denied that certainty could be attained at all, has some agreement with my way of proceeding at the first setting out; but they end in being infinitely separated and opposed. For the holders of that doctrine assert simply that nothing can be known; I also assert that not much can be known in nature by the way which is now in use. But then they go on to destroy the authority of the senses and understanding; whereas I proceed to devise helps for the same.”
—Francis Bacon (1560–1626)
