Reasonable

Famous quotes containing the word reasonable:

    “Summer involves going down as a steep flight of steps
    To a narrow ledge over the water. Is this it, then,

    Resembles yours, the one reflected in the water.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “A reasonable amount o’ fleas is good fer a dog—keeps him from broodin’ over bein’ a dog, mebbe.”
