Expected Scores

Famous quotes containing the words expected and/or scores:

“Ancient history has an air of antiquity. It should be more modern. It is written as if the specator should be thinking of the backside of the picture on the wall, or as if the author expected that the dead would be his readers, and wished to detail to them their own experience.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“It is not he who gains the exact point in dispute who scores most in controversy—but he who has shown the better temper.”
