Famous quotes containing the word deal:

    “O monstrous! but one half-penny-worth of bread to this
    intolerable deal of sack!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Every man is as heaven made him, and sometimes a great deal worse.”
    —Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)

    “A great deal of unnecessary worry is indulged in by theatregoers trying to understand what Bernard Shaw means. They are not satisfied to listen to a pleasantly written scene in which three or four clever people say clever things, but they need to purse their lips and scowl a little and debate as to whether Shaw meant the lines to be an attack on monogamy as an institution or a plea for manual training in the public school system.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
