Famous quotes containing the words random and/or number:
“Assemble, first, all casual bits and scraps

People this world, by chance created so,
With random persons whom you do not know”

“How often should a woman be pregnant? Continually, or hardly ever? Or must there be a certain number of pregnancy anniversaries established by fashion? What do you, at the age of forty-three, have to say on the subject? Is it a fact that the laws of nature, or of the country, or of propriety, have ordained this time of life for sterility?”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (16941773)
