Day Chief

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or chief:

    Bid her paint till day of doom,
    To this favour she must come.
    Bid the merchant gather wealth,
    The usurer exact by stealth,
    The proud man beat it from his thought,
    Yet to this shape all must be brought.
    Francis Beaumont (1584-1616)

    When we do not know the truth of a thing, it is of advantage that there should exist a common error which determines the mind of man.... For the chief malady of man is restless curiosity about things which he cannot understand; and it is not so bad for him to be in error as to be curious to no purpose.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
