Methodical Study

Famous quotes containing the words methodical and/or study:

    A man who would woo a fair maid,
    Should ‘prentice himself to the trade;
    And study all day,
    In methodical way,
    How to flatter, cajole, and persuade
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    What is more subtle than this which ties me to the woman or man
    that looks in my face?
    Which fuses me into you now, and pours my meaning into you?
    We understand men do we not?
    What I promis’d without mentioning it, have you not accepted?
    What the study could not teach—what the preaching could
    not accomplish is accomplish’d, is it not?
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
