Annual Flying Hours

Famous quotes containing the words annual, flying and/or hours:

    Every individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the publick interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it.... He intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention.
    Adam Smith (1723–1790)

    I’m a lumberjack
    And I’m OK,
    I sleep all night
    And I work all day.
    —Monty Python’s Flying Circus. broadcast Dec. 1969. Monty Python’s Flying Circus (TV series)

    The student may read Homer or Æschylus in the Greek without danger of dissipation or luxuriousness, for it implies that he in some measure emulate their heroes, and consecrate morning hours to their pages.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
