Latitude Quotations
In every aspect of life, including the economic dimension, we are always challenged to do the right thing. In many cases in the market system, which allows a great deal of latitude for human choice, people can get carried away to excess. Lee R. Raymond It is the maintenance of slavery by law in a state, not parallels of latitude, that makes its a southern state; and the absence of this, that makes it a northern state. William H. Seward The teller of a mirthful tale has latitude allowed him. We are content with less than absolute truth. Charles Lamb Good writers are often excellent at a hundred other things, but writing promises a greater latitude for the ego. John Cheever |
