Famous quotes containing the words employment, flight and/or test:

    It is easier for a man to be thought fit for an employment that he has not, than for one he stands already possessed of, and is exercising.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
    The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
    When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.

    And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
    their goods;
    And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
    armed men.
    Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)

    Preoccupation with money is the great test of small natures, but only a small test of great ones.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
