Famous quotes containing the words time and/or number:

cracked and flung to the fire
Mgo up in a roar

All recognition lost, burnt clean
clean in the flame, the green
dispersed,”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

“No Government can be long secure without a formidable Opposition. It reduces their supporters to that tractable number which can be managed by the joint influences of fruition and hope. It offers vengeance to the discontented, and distinction to the ambitious; and employs the energies of aspiring spirits, who otherwise may prove traitors in a division or assassins in a debate.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
