Judged Larger

Famous quotes containing the words judged and/or larger:

    To coxcombs averse, yet most civilly steering,
    When they judged without skill he was still hard of hearing:
    When they talked of their Raphaels, Corregios and stuff,
    He shifted his trumpet, and only took snuff.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)

    Did all the lets and bars appear
    To every just or larger end,
    Whence should come the trust and cheer?
    Youth must its ignorant impulse lend—
    Age finds place in the rear.
    All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys,
    The champions and enthusiasts of the state:
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
