Famous quotes containing the words case and/or endings:
“It was a maxim with Mr. Brass that the habit of paying compliments kept a mans tongue oiled without any expense; and that, as that useful member ought never to grow rusty or creak in turning on its hinges in the case of a practitioner of the law, in whom it should be always glib and easy, he lost few opportunities of improving himself by the utterance of handsome speeches and eulogistic expressions”
—Charles Dickens (18121870)
“Ireland is where strange tales begin and happy endings are possible.”
