Ordinary Degrees

Famous quotes containing the words ordinary and/or degrees:

“Youth demands more than ordinary life. Age clings to it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“No sooner met but they looked; no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy; and in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage, which they will climb incontinent, or else be incontinent before marriage.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
