Longest Serving Prime

Famous quotes containing the words longest, serving and/or prime:

    “Once I went so far as to slaughter a woodchuck which ravaged my bean-field,—effect his transmigration, as a Tartar would say,—and devour him, partly for experiment’s sake; but though it afforded me a momentary enjoyment, notwithstanding a musky flavor, I saw that the longest use would not make that a good practice, however it might seem to have your woodchucks ready dressed by the village butcher.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “With serving still
    This have I won,
    For my goodwill
    To be undone;”
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    “No woman in my time will be Prime Minister or Chancellor or Foreign Secretary—not the top jobs. Anyway I wouldn’t want to be Prime Minister. You have to give yourself 100%.”
    —Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)
