Famous quotes containing the words rack and/or system:
“What we have we prize not to the worth
Whiles we enjoy it, but being lacked and lost,
Why, then we rack the value, then we find
The virtue that possession would not show us
Whiles it was ours.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Books are for the most part willfully and hastily written, as parts of a system to supply a want real or imagined.”
