Famous quotes containing the words man and/or gang:
“How long shall we sit in our porticoes practising idle and musty virtues, which any work would make impertinent?

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The best laid schemes o’ mice and men Gang aft agley;
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain, For promis’d joy!”
