Jury Prize

Famous quotes containing the words jury and/or prize:

    So the Snark found the verdict, although as it owned,
    It was spent with the toils of the day:
    When it said the word ‘GUILTY!’ the Jury all groaned,
    And some of them fainted away.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    Then, though I prize my friends, I cannot afford to talk with them and study their visions, lest I lose my own. It would indeed give me a certain household joy to quit this lofty seeking, this spiritual astronomy, or search of stars, and come down to warm sympathies with you; but then I know well I shall mourn always the vanishing of my mighty gods.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
