Fast Leg Theory

Famous quotes containing the words fast, leg and/or theory:

    A man may travel fast enough and earn his living on the road.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A good leg will fall, a straight back will stoop, a black beard will turn white, a fair face will wither, a full eye will wax hollow, but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon—or rather the sun and not the moon, for it shines bright and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The theory seems to be that so long as a man is a failure he is one of God’s chillun, but that as soon as he has any luck he owes it to the Devil.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
