Expedient Means

Famous quotes containing the words expedient and/or means:

    It is expedient there should be gods, and as it is expedient,
    let us deem that gods exist.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    The only asylum
    Was the poorhouse, and those who could afford,
    Rather than send their folks to such a place,
    Kept them at home; and it does seem more human.
    But it’s not so: the place is the asylum.
    There they have every means proper to do with,
    And you aren’t darkening other people’s lives....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
