Famous quotes containing the words gordon and/or humphrey:

    I should be very willing to redress
    Men’s wrongs, and rather check than punish crimes,
    Had not Cervantes, in that all too true tale
    Of Quixote, shown how all such efforts fail.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Much of our American progress has been the product of the individual who had an idea; pursued it; fashioned it; tenaciously clung to it against all odds; and then produced it, sold it, and profited from it.
    —Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
