Poor Judgment

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or judgment:

“Poor John Field!—I trust he does not read this, unless he will improve by it,—thinking to live by some derivative old-country mode in this primitive new country.... With his horizon all his own, yet he a poor man, born to be poor, with his inherited Irish poverty or poor life, his Adam’s grandmother and boggy ways, not to rise in this world, he nor his posterity, till their wading webbed bog-trotting feet get talaria to their heels.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“If you were born to honor, show it now;
If put upon you, make the judgment good
That thought you worthy of it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
