Properly Basic

Famous quotes containing the words properly and/or basic:

“My dear young friend ... civilization has absolutely no need of nobility or heroism. These things are symptoms of political inefficiency.

“Good shot, bad luck and hell are the five basic words to be used in a game of tennis, though these, of course, can be slightly amplified.”
