Frame Number

Famous quotes containing the words frame and/or number:

    He drew the curse upon the world, and cracked
    The whole frame with his fall.
    This made him long for home, as loth to stay
    With murmurers and foes;
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    How often should a woman be pregnant? Continually, or hardly ever? Or must there be a certain number of pregnancy anniversaries established by fashion? What do you, at the age of forty-three, have to say on the subject? Is it a fact that the laws of nature, or of the country, or of propriety, have ordained this time of life for sterility?
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
