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

    A single thankful thought towards heaven is the most perfect of all prayers.
    Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729–1881)

    White ... is not a mere absence of colour; it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black.... God paints in many colours; but He never paints so gorgeously, I had almost said so gaudily, as when He paints in white.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra.
    Bill Cosby (20th century)
