Famous quotes containing the words cumulative, days and/or served:

    Raising children is an incredibly hard and risky business in which no cumulative wisdom is gained: each generation repeats the mistakes the previous one made.
    Bill Cosby (20th century)

    Let it be signified to me through any channel ... that the possession of the Floridas would be desirable to the United States, and in sixty days it will be accomplished.
    ...penned in the language of truth, and divested of those expressions of servility which would persuade his majesty that we are asking favors and not rights.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    The little I know of it has not served to raise my opinion of what is vulgarly called the “Monied Interest;” I mean, that blood-sucker, that muckworm, that calls itself “the friend of government.”
    William, Earl Of Pitt (1708–1778)
