Reverse Body

Famous quotes containing the words reverse and/or body:

    During the late war [the American Revolution] I had an infallible rule for deciding what [Great Britain] would do on every occasion. It was, to consider what they ought to do, and to take the reverse of that as what they would assuredly do, and I can say with truth that I was never deceived.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    I thought no more was needed
    Youth to prolong
    Than dumb-bell and foil
    To keep the body young.
    O who could have foretold
    That the heart grows old?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
