Famous quotes containing the word mischief:

    There is no end to the undeserved misery and mischief it could create.
    Abigail Van Buren (b. 1918)

    O but we dreamed to mend
    Whatever mischief seemed
    To afflict mankind, but now
    That winds of winter blow
    Learn that we were crack-pated when we dreamed.

    A sympathetic person is placed in the dilemma of a swimmer among drowning men, who all catch at him, and if he give so much as a leg or a finger, they will drown him. They wish to be saved from the mischief of their vices, but not from their vices.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
