High Degree

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or degree:

    But man, proud man,
    Dressed in a little brief authority,
    Most ignorant of what he’s most assured,
    His glassy essence, like an angry ape
    Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
    As makes the angels weep.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In all pointed sentences, some degree of accuracy must be sacrificed to conciseness.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
