Fixed Number

Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or number:

“But see, the Virgin blest
Hath laid her Babe to rest:
Time is our tedious song should here have ending;
Heaven’s youngest teemed star,
Hath fixed her polished car,
Her sleeping Lord with handmaid lamp attending;
And all about the courtly stable,
Bright-harnessed angels sit in order serviceable.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“The best number for a dinner party is two—myself and a dam’ good head waiter.”
