Famous quotes containing the word numbers:

—Jill Robinson (b. 1936)
“I had but three chairs in my house; one for solitude, two for friendship; three for society. When visitors came in larger and unexpected numbers there was but the third chair for them all, but they generally economized the room by standing up.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Green grow the rushes-O
What is your one-O?”
