Famous quotes containing the words team and/or facts:

    “Is my team ploughing,
    That I was used to drive
    And hear the harness jingle
    When I was man alive?”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    “In the fevered state of our country, no good can ever result from any attempt to set one of these fiery zealots to rights, either in fact or principle. They are determined as to the facts they will believe, and the opinions on which they will act. Get by them, therefore, as you would by an angry bull; it is not for a man of sense to dispute the road with such an animal.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
