Finish

Famous quotes containing the word finish:

“It matters little comparatively whether the fields fill the farmer’s barn. The true husbandman will cease from anxiety, as the squirrels manifest no concern whether the woods will bear chestnuts this year or not, and finish his labor with every day, relinquishing all claim to the produce of his fields, and sacrificing in his mind not only his first but his last fruits also.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Defeat doesn’t finish a man—quit does. A man is not finished when he’s defeated. He’s finished when he quits.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–199 )

“The King said to his son: “Enough of this!
The Kingdom’s yours to finish as you please.
I’m getting out tonight. Here, take the crown.””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
