Skillful

Famous quotes containing the word skillful:

“A gathering of Democrats is more sweaty, disorderly, offhand, and rowdy than a gathering of Republicans; it is also likely to be more cheerful, imaginative, tolerant of dissent, and skillful at the game of give-and-take. A gathering of Republicans is more respectable, sober, purposeful, and businesslike than a gathering of Democrats; it is also likely to be more self-righteous, pompous, cut-and-dried, and just plain boring.”
—Clinton Rossiter (1917–1970)

“Do you see those who are skillful in their work? They will serve kings; they will not serve common people.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 22:29.

“There are many skillful apprentices, but few master workmen.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
