Ill

Famous quotes containing the word ill:

    The greatest dangers have their allurements, if the want of success is likely to be attended with a degree of glory. Middling dangers are horrid, when the loss of reputation is the inevitable consequence of ill success.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    When A tells me that B has spoken ill of me, I think “that makes two of you.”
