Famous quotes containing the words mechanical and/or bride:
“A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.”
—C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
“That is ever the way. ‘Tis all jealousy to the bride and good wishes to the corpse.”
—J.M. (James Matthew)
