Ensuing Possession

Famous quotes containing the words ensuing and/or possession:

    The ensuing year will be the longest of my life, and the last of such hateful labours. The next we will sow our cabbages together.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    It appears that ordinary men take wives because possession is not possible without marriage, and that ordinary women accept husbands because marriage is not possible without possession; with totally differing aims the method is the same on both sides.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
