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

    Knew her own mind. But the mind radically commonplace, only its inherited force, & cumulative sense of power, making it remarkable.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    The eighth day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Eight maids a-milking,
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 43–45)

    Old friendships are like meats served up repeatedly, cold, comfortless, and distasteful. The stomach turns against them.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
