Famous quotes containing the word improbable:

    Though it seems improbable on the face of it
    You must master the huge retards and have faith in the slow
    Blossoming of haystacks, stairways, walls of convolvulus,
    Until the moon can do no more. Exhausted,
    You get out of bed. Your project is completed
    Though the experiment is a mess.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    It is nearly always the most improbable things that really come to pass.
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
