Fair Odds

Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or odds:

    A fair lady’s smile is worth more than a thousand ounces of gold.
    Chinese proverb.

    However great a man’s fear of life, suicide remains the courageous act, the clear- headed act of a mathematician. The suicide has judged by the laws of chance—so many odds against one that to live will be more miserable than to die. His sense of mathematics is greater than his sense of survival.
    Graham Greene (1904–1991)
