Customary Senate

Famous quotes containing the words customary and/or senate:

    ‘Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother,
    Nor customary suits of solemn black,
    ...
    Together with all forms, moods, shapes of grief,
    That can denote me truly.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    At first I intended to become a student of the Senate rules and I did learn much about them, but I soon found that the Senate had but one fixed rule, subject to exceptions of course, which was to the effect that the Senate would do anything it wanted to do whenever it wanted to do it.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
