Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:
“Jarndyce and Jarndyce drones on. This scarecrow of a suit, has, in course of time, become so complicated that no man alive knows what it means. The parties to it understand it least; but it has been observed that no two Chancery lawyers can talk about it for five minutes, without coming to total disagreement as to all the premises.”
—Charles Dickens (18121870)
“Why, therefore, should we do ourselves this wrong,
Or othersthat we are not always strong
That we are sometimes overborne with care
That we should ever weak or heartless be,
Anxious or troubledwhen with us is prayer,
And joy and strength and courage are with Thee?”
—Richard Chenevix Trench (18071886)
