Study Edition

Famous quotes containing the words study and/or edition:

    One thing I am determined on is that by the time I die my brain shall weigh as much as a man’s if study and learning can make it so.
    M. Carey Thomas (1857–1935)

    I knew a gentleman who was so good a manager of his time that he would not even lose that small portion of it which the calls of nature obliged him to pass in the necessary-house, but gradually went through all the Latin poets in those moments. He bought, for example, a common edition of Horace, of which he tore off gradually a couple of pages, read them first, and then sent them down as a sacrifice to Cloacina: this was so much time fairly gained.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
