Consist

Famous quotes containing the word consist:

    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Faith, so they say, but I think it rather consists of eating and drinking.
    Sir Toby Belch. Thou’rt a scholar; therefore let us eat and drink.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Nothing changes more constantly than the past; for the past that influences our lives does not consist of what actually happened, but of what men believe happened.
