Famous quotes containing the word occasions:
“How all occasions do inform against me,
And spur my dull revenge!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“There is occasions and causes why and wherefore in all things.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I have been reporting club meetings for four years and I am tired of hearing reviews of the books I was brought up on. I am tired of amateur performances at occasions announced to be for purposes either of enjoyment or improvement. I am tired of suffering under the pretense of acquiring culture. I am tired of hearing the word “culture” used so wantonly. I am tired of essays that let no guilty author escape quotation.”
—Josephine Woodward, U.S. author. As quoted in Everyone Was Brave, ch. 3, by William L. O’Neill (1969)
