Famous quotes containing the words cumulative, days and/or served:

    “Raising children is an incredibly hard and risky business in which no cumulative wisdom is gained: each generation repeats the mistakes the previous one made.”
    —Bill Cosby (20th century)

    “I had a long day’s work, starting at eight in the morning and ending after nine at night, but in those days [we] ... did not think of our day in terms of hours. We liked our work, we were proud to do it well, and I am afraid that we were very, very happy.”
    —Louie Mayer (b. c. 1914)

    “Oh how unhappy is the prince served by such men who are so easily corrupted.”
    —François Rabelais (1494–1553)
