Famous quotes containing the words commonly and/or statistics:

    “The farmer imagines power and place are fine things. But the President has paid dear for his White House. It has commonly cost him all his peace, and the best of his manly attributes. To preserve for a short time so conspicuous an appearance before the world, he is content to eat dust before the real masters who stand erect behind the throne.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “and Olaf, too

    preponderatingly because
    unless statistics lie he was
    more brave than me: more blond than you.”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)
