Famous quotes containing the words general and/or usage:
“At that,
his small size,
keen eyes,
serviceable beak
and general truculence
assure his survival—”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
“Pythagoras, Locke, Socrates—but pages
Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
