Resort Quotations
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. Thomas Jefferson Judgments, value judgments concerning life, for or against, can in the last resort never be true: they possess value only as symptoms, they come into consideration only as symptoms - in themselves such judgments are stupidities. Friedrich Nietzsche What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind. Friedrich Nietzsche It is now quite lawful for a Catholic woman to avoid pregnancy by a resort to mathematics, though she is still forbidden to resort to physics or chemistry. H. L. Mencken The last resort of kings, the cannonball. The last resort of the people, the paving stone. Victor Hugo |
