Parted Ways

Famous quotes containing the words parted and/or ways:

    ‘A parted ev’n just between twelve and one, ev’n at the
    turning o’ the tide; for after I saw him fumble with the
    sheets, and play with flowers, and smile upon his finger’s
    end, I knew there was but one way; for his nose was as sharp as
    pen, and ‘a babbled of green fields.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Is it true or false that Belfast is north of London? That the galaxy is the shape of a fried egg? That Beethoven was a drunkard? That Wellington won the battle of Waterloo? There are various degrees and dimensions of success in making statements: the statements fit the facts always more or less loosely, in different ways on different occasions for different intents and purposes.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
