Famous quotes containing the words converse and/or county:
“There is a plain distinction to be made betwixt pleasure and happiness. For tho there can be no happiness without pleasureyet the converse of the proposition will not hold true.We are so made, that from the common gratifications of our appetites, and the impressions of a thousand objects, we snatch the one, like a transient gleam, without being suffered to taste the other.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“In the County Tyrone, in the town of Dungannon,”
