Famous quotes containing the words operation, spirit and/or tyranny:

    It requires a surgical operation to get a joke well into a Scotch understanding. The only idea of wit, or rather that inferior variety of the electric talent which prevails occasionally in the North, and which, under the name of “Wut,” is so infinitely distressing to people of good taste, is laughing immoderately at stated intervals.
    Sydney Smith (1771–1845)

    And the Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 1:12.

    Of Jesus.

    The word “obligation” is very seldom in my thoughts, and consequently very seldom is it uttered by my tongue. For I am satisfied that whoever hath the word “obligation” continually in his mouth hath the love of tyranny steadily fixed in his heart.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
