Degree

Famous quotes containing the word degree:

    The degree to which the child-rearing professionals continue to be out of touch with reality is astounding. For example, a widely read manual on breast-feeding, devotes fewer than two pages to the working mother.
    Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)

    Unintelligent persons are like weeds that thrive in good ground; they love to be amused in proportion to the degree in which they weary themselves.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    O, when degree is shaked,
    Which is the ladder to all high designs,
    The enterprise is sick.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
