Match Penalty

Famous quotes containing the words match and/or penalty:

    “There’s not a man or woman
    Born under the skies
    Dare match in learning with us two,
    And all day long we have found
    There’s not a thing but love can make
    The world a narrow pound.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    My excuse for not lecturing against the use of tobacco is, that I never chewed it; that is a penalty which reformed tobacco-chewers have to pay; though there are things enough I have chewed which I could lecture against.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
