Famous quotes containing the words forty and/or mile:
“Solomons ... excess became an insult upon the privileges of mankind; for by the same plan of luxury, which made it necessary to have forty thousand stalls of horses,he had unfortunately miscalculated his other wants, and so had seven hundred wives....
Wisedeluded man!”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“We got our new rifled muskets this morning. They are mostly old muskets, many of them used, altered from flint-lock to percussion ... but the power of the gun was fully as great as represented. The ball at one-fourth mile passed through the largest rails; at one-half mile almost the same.... I think it an excellent arm.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
