Proper List

Famous quotes containing the words proper and/or list:

    But the difficultest go to understand,
    And the difficultest job a man can do,
    Is to come it brave and meek with thirty bob a week,
    And feel that that’s the proper thing for you.
    John Davidson (1857–1909)

    The advice of their elders to young men is very apt to be as unreal as a list of the hundred best books.
