Single Definite Article

Famous quotes containing the words single, definite and/or article:

    My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical,
    Shakes so my single state of man,
    That function is smothered in surmise,
    And nothing is but what is not.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    God is a foreman with certain definite views
    Who orders life in shifts of work and leisure.
    Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    Books constitute capital. A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years. It is not, then, an article of mere consumption but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men, setting out in life, it is their only capital.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
