Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:

    Jarndyce and Jarndyce drones on. This scarecrow of a suit, has, in course of time, become so complicated that no man alive knows what it means. The parties to it understand it least; but it has been observed that no two Chancery lawyers can talk about it for five minutes, without coming to total disagreement as to all the premises.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    Curse of the orchard,
    Blemish on the land’s fair countenance,
    I have grown strong for strength denied, for struggle
    In hostile woods. I keep alive by being the troublesome,
    Indestructible
    Stinkweed of truth.
    Naomi Long Madgett (b. 1923)
