Generally

Famous quotes containing the word generally:

“The inhabitants of St. John’s and vicinity are described by an English traveler as “singularly unprepossessing,” and before completing his period he adds, “besides, they are generally very much disaffected to the British crown.” I suspect that that “besides” should have been a “because.””
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Those who have least to do are generally the most busy people in the world.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

“As a child is indulged or checked in its early follies, a ground is generally laid for the happiness or misery of the future man.”
