General Smith

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or smith:

    I never saw any people who appeared to live so much without amusement as the Cincinnatians.... Were it not for the churches,... I think there might be a general bonfire of best bonnets, for I never could discover any other use for them.
    Frances Trollope (1780–1863)

    Oh, don’t tell me of facts—I never believe facts: you know Canning said nothing was so fallacious as facts, except figures.
