Starting Power

Famous quotes containing the words starting and/or power:

    And down in fathoms many went the captain and the crew;
    Down went the owners—greedy men whom hope of gain
    allured:
    Oh, dry the starting tear, for they were heavily insured.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    It recognizes no morality but a sham morality meant for deceit, no honor even among thieves and of a thievish sort, no force but physical force, no intellectual power but cunning, no disgrace but failure, no crime but stupidity.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
