Famous quotes containing the words summary and/or table:

    “Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
    —Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    “I talk with the authority of failure—Ernest with the authority of success. We could never sit across the same table again.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
