Waste Assurance

Famous quotes containing the words waste and/or assurance:

    Chief Justice. Your means are very slender, and your waste is great.
    Falstaff. I would it were otherwise. I would my means were greater, and my waist slenderer.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    There is no assurance of the great fact in question [namely, immortality]. All the arguments are mere probabilities, analogies, fancies, whims. We believe, or disbelieve, or are in doubt according to our own make-up—to accidents, to education, to environment. For myself, I do not reach either faith or belief ... that I—the conscious person talking to you—will meet you in the world beyond—you being yourself a conscious person—the same person now reading what I say.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
