Famous quotes containing the words conclusions and/or drawn:

    What is the good of drawing conclusions from experience? I don’t deny we sometimes draw the right conclusions, but don’t we just as often draw the wrong ones?
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    Our graves that hide us from the searching sun
    Are like drawn curtains when the play is done.
    Thus march we, playing, to our latest rest,
    Only, we die in earnest—that’s no jest.
    Sir Walter Raleigh (1552?–1618)
