Average Score

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or score:

    ... the average Catholic perceives no connection between religion and morality, unless it is a question of someone else’s morality.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    Earthly minds, like mud walls, resist the strongest batteries: and though, perhaps, sometimes the force of a clear argument may make some impression, yet they nevertheless stand firm, and keep out the enemy, truth, that would captivate or disturb them. Tell a man passionately in love, that he is jilted; bring a score of witnesses of the falsehood of his mistress, it is ten to one but three kind words of hers shall invalidate all their testimonies.
    John Locke (1632–1704)
