Famous quotes containing the words base and/or amount:
“Then must you speak
Of one the lov’d not wisely but too well;
Of one not easily jealous, but, being wrought,
Perplex’d in the extreme; of one whose hand,
Like the base Indian, threw a pearl away
Richer than all his tribe;”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Anyone can do any amount of work, provided it isn’t the work he is supposed to be doing.”
