Famous quotes containing the words clock and/or gate:
“Whoever considers morality the main objective of human existence, seems to me like a person who defines the purpose of a clock as not going wrong. The first objective for a clock, is, however, that it does run; not going wrong is an additional regulative function. If not a watchs greatest accomplishment were not going wrong, unwound watches might be the best.”
—Franz Grillparzer (17911872)
“I have come to the conclusion that the major part of the work of a President is to increase the gate receipts of expositions and fairs and by tourists into town.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
