Famous quotes containing the word disposition:
“It is an immense misfortune to the empire to have a king of such a disposition at such a time. We are told and every thing proves it true that he is the bitterest enemy we have.... To undo his empire he has but one truth more to learn, that after colonies have drawn the sword there is but one step more they can take.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“Life admits not of delays; when pleasure can be had, it is fit to catch it: every hour takes away part of the things that please us, and perhaps part of our disposition to be pleased.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“How strange or odd some’er I bear myself,
As I perchance hereafter shall think meet
To put an antic disposition on.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
