Majority Required

Famous quotes containing the words majority and/or required:

    “Since the majority of me
    Rejects the majority of you,
    Debating ends forthwith, and we
    Divide.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “She, as a veil down to the slender waist,
    Her unadorned golden tresses wore
    Dishevelled, but in wanton ringlets waved
    As the vine curls her tendrils, which implied
    Subjection, but required with gentle sway,
    And by her yielded, by him best received,
    Yielded with coy submission, modest pride,
    And sweet, reluctant, amorous delay.
    Nor those mysterious parts were then concealed:
    Then was not guilty shame: dishonest Shame
    Of Nature’s works, Honour dishonourable.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
