Famous quotes containing the words william, frederick and/or fisher:

    I often think it’s comical
    How Nature always does contrive
    That every boy and every gal,
    That’s born into the world alive,
    Is either a little Liberal,
    Or else a little Conservative!
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Science is the knowledge of many, orderly and methodically
    digested and arranged, so as to become attainable by one. The
    knowledge of reasons and their conclusions constitutes abstract, that of causes and their effects, and of the laws of nature, natural science.
    —John Frederick William Herschel (1792–1871)

    ... most bereaved souls crave nourishment more tangible than prayers: they want a steak. What is more, they need a steak. Preferably they need it rare, grilled, heavily salted, for that way it is most easily digested, and most quickly turned into the glandular whip their tired adrenals cry for.
    —M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
