View quotes by Lord Acton

I am one of a rare breed of true politicians who definitely say what they may or may not mean with absolute certainty.
View quotes by Sir Anthony Eden

It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.
View quotes by Lord Acton

The absolute good is not a matter of opinion but of nature.
View quotes by Cicero

Everything you've learned in school as 'obvious' becomes less and less obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example, there are no solids in the universe. There's not even a suggestion of a solid. There are no absolute continuums. There are no surfaces. There are no straight lines.
View quotes by R Buckminster Fuller

It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.
View quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
