Famous quotes containing the words quick and/or facts:

    If the quick fire of youth light not your mind,

    When you are dead, you should be such a one
    As you are now; for you are cold and stern.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Scholars dream of finding small facts pregnant with great progeny.
