Famous quotes containing the word symptoms:

    “A certain kind of rich man afflicted with the symptoms of moral dandyism sooner or later comes to the conclusion that it isn’t enough merely to make money. He feels obliged to hold views, to espouse causes and elect Presidents, to explain to a trembling world how and why the world went wrong. The spectacle is nearly always comic.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    “In retirement, only money and symptoms are consequential.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Not being a K.N. [Know-Nothing] I am left as a sort of waif on the political sea with symptoms of a mild sort towards Black Republicanism.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
