Famous quotes containing the words dates and/or ranks:

    “Dates are stupidly annoying—what we want is not dates but taste;Myet we are uncomfortable without them.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “Among the best traitors Ireland has ever had, Mother Church ranks at the very top, a massive obstacle in the path to equality and freedom. She has been a force for conservatism, not on the basis of preserving Catholic doctrine or preventing the corruption of her children, but simply to ward off threats to her own security and influence.”
    —Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)
