Famous quotes containing the words set, beliefs and/or attitudes:
“I had rather hear a brazen canstick turned,
Or a dry wheel grate on the axle-tree,
And that would set my teeth nothing on edge,
Nothing so much as mincing poetry.
Tis like the forced gait of a shuffling nag.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)

—Fred Rogers (20th century)
