Famous quotes containing the words demand and/or test:
“The pound of flesh which I demand of him
Is dearly bought as mine, and I will have it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The test of a given phrase would be: Is it worthy to be immortal? To “make a beeline” for something. That’s worthy of being immortal and is immortal in English idiom. “I guess I’ll split” is not going to be immortal and is excludable, therefore excluded.”
—Robert Fitzgerald (1910–1985)
