Odd Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words odd and/or numbers:

    I wonder if his appetite was good?
    Or, if it were, if also his digestion?
    Methinks at meals some odd thoughts might intrude,
    And conscience ask a curious sort of question,
    About the right divine how far we should
    Sell flesh and blood.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    All ye poets of the age,
    All ye witlings of the stage,
    Learn your jingles to reform,
    Crop your numbers to conform.
    Let your little verses flow
    Gently, sweetly, row by row;
    Let the verse the subject fit,
    Little subject, little wit.
    Namby-Pamby is your guide,
    Albion’s joy, Hibernia’s pride.
    Henry Carey (1693?–1743)
