Famous quotes containing the words stock and/or removal:

    “Death and life were not
    Till man made up the whole,
    Made lock, stock and barrel
    Out of his bitter soul,”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Anyone who seeks for the true causes of miracles, and strives to understand natural phenomena as an intelligent being, and not to gaze at them like a fool, is set down and denounced as an impious heretic by those, whom the masses adore as the interpreters of nature and the gods. Such persons know that, with the removal of ignorance, the wonder which forms their only available means for proving and preserving their authority would vanish also.”
    —Baruch (Benedict)
