Famous quotes containing the words wishing and/or chair:
“When Man evolved Pity, he did a queer thing—deprived himself of the power of living life as it is without wishing it to become something different.”
—John Galsworthy (1867–1933)
“Come leave the loathed stage,
And the more loathsome age,
Where pride and impudence in faction knit
Usurp the chair of wit:
Indicting and arraigning every day,
Something they call a play.
Let their fastidious, vain
Commission of the brain,
Run on and rage, sweat, censure, and condemn:
They were not made for thee, less thou for them.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
