Couple

Famous quotes containing the word couple:

    Said an ape as he swung by his tail
    To his offspring both female and male,
    “From your children, my dears,
    In a couple of years
    May evolve a professor at Yale.”
    Anonymous.

    If we make a couple of discoveries here and there we need not believe things will go on like this for ever.... Just as we hit water when we dig in the earth, so we discover the incomprehensible sooner or later.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
