Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:
“Jarndyce and Jarndyce drones on. This scarecrow of a suit, has, in course of time, become so complicated that no man alive knows what it means. The parties to it understand it least; but it has been observed that no two Chancery lawyers can talk about it for five minutes, without coming to total disagreement as to all the premises.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“Though strength be wanting, the will to action
Merits praise.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
