Famous quotes containing the words general and/or conference:

    Never alone
    Did the King sigh, but with a general groan.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.
    Walter Wellesley (Red)
