Famous quotes containing the words fat and/or test:
“Always be on time. Never try to make any personal engagements. Do as little talking as humanly possible. Never be disturbed by anything. Always do what youre told to do as quickly as possible. Remember to lean back in a parade, so that people can see your husband. Dont get too fat to ride three on a seat. Get out of the way as quickly as youre not needed.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (18841962)
“I am willing, for a money consideration, to test this physical strength, this nervous force, and muscular power with which Ive been gifted, to show that they will bear a certain strain. If I break down, if my brain gives way under want of sleep, my heart ceases to respond to the calls made on my circulatory system, or the surcharged veins of my extremities burstif, in short, I fall helpless, or it may be, dead on the track, then I lose my money.”
—Ada Anderson (1860?)
