Mental Capacity

Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or capacity:

“Dining-out is a vice, a dissipation of spirit punished by remorse. We eat, drink and talk a little too much, abuse all our friends, belch out our literary preferences and are egged on by accomplices in the audience to acts of mental exhibitionism. Such evenings cannot fail to diminish those who take part in them.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

“To succeed in the other trades, capacity must be shown; in the law, concealment of it will do.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
