Mischief

Famous quotes containing the word mischief:

“It sometimes strikes me that the whole of science is a piece of impudence; that nature can afford to ignore our impertinent interference. If our monkey mischief should ever reach the point of blowing up the earth by decomposing an atom, and even annihilated the sun himself, I cannot really suppose that the universe would turn a hair.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

“There are but very few men clever enough to know all the mischief they do.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

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