The public conviction that a railroad linking the West and the East was an absolute necessity became so pronounced after the gold discoveries of '49 that Congress passed an act in 1853 providing for a survey of several lines from the Mississippi to the Pacific.
John Moody
The quest of the absolute leads into the four-dimensional world.
Arthur Eddington
The sword is the axis of the world and its power is absolute.
Charles de Gaulle
The teller of a mirthful tale has latitude allowed him. We are content with less than absolute truth.
Charles Lamb
The theory of relativity worked out by Mr. Einstein, which is in the domain of natural science, I believe can also be applied to the political field. Both democracy and human rights are relative concepts - and not absolute and general.
Jiang Zemin
The truth, the absolute truth, is that the chief beauty for the theatre consists in fine bodily proportions.
Sarah Bernhardt
The universal medicine for the Soul is the Supreme Reason and Absolute Justice; for the mind, mathematical and practical Truth; for the body, the Quintessence, a combination of light and gold.
Albert Pike
The Universe is the periodical manifestation of this unknown Absolute Essence.
H. P. Blavatsky
The very desire for guarantees that our values are eternal and secure in some objective heaven is perhaps only a craving for the certainties of childhood or the absolute values of our primitive past.
Isaiah Berlin
There are neither good nor bad subjects. From the point of view of pure Art, you could almost establish it as an axiom that the subject is irrelevant, style itself being an absolute manner of seeing things.
Gustave Flaubert
There are no absolute rules of conduct, either in peace or war. Everything depends on circumstances.
Leon Trotsky
There are no eternal facts, as there are no absolute truths.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are writers in Germany who drink the Absolute like water; and there are books in which even the dogs make references to the Infinite.
Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
There comes a pause, for human strength will not endure to dance without cessation; and everyone must reach the point at length of absolute prostration.
Lewis Carroll
There is certainly no absolute standard of beauty. That precisely is what makes its pursuit so interesting.
John Kenneth Galbraith
There is no absolute point of view from which real and ideal can be finally separated and labelled.
T. S. Eliot
There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our first great sorrow, when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and be healed, to have despaired and have recovered hope.
George Eliot
There is no such thing as absolute value in this world. You can only estimate what a thing is worth to you.
Charles Dudley Warner
There is not a single extant study that supports all the arguments against men being with their children. It's absolute bollocks.
Bob Geldof
These are they whose youth was violently severed by war and death; a word on the telephone, a scribbled line on paper, and their future ceased. They have built up their lives again, but their safety is not absolute, their fortress not impregnable.
Winifred Holtby
