Marks

Famous quotes containing the word marks:

    if we are to win
    that title I want to see how.
    But I don’t want to see
    any marks when you’re dressed,
    he said. He said, Now.
    Gary Gildner (b. 1938)

    I regard almost all quarrels of princes on the same footing, and I see nothing that marks man’s unreason so positively as war. Indeed, what folly to kill one another for interests often imaginary, and always for the pleasure of persons who do not think themselves even obliged to those who sacrifice themselves for them!
    Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)

    I open with a clock striking, to beget an awful attention in the audience—it also marks the time, which is four o’clock in the morning, and saves a description of the rising sun, and a great deal about gilding the eastern hemisphere.
    Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
