Famous quotes containing the words roll and/or bet:
“There was somewhat military in his nature, not to be subdued, always manly and able, but rarely tender, as if he did not feel himself except in opposition. He wanted a fallacy to expose, a blunder to pillory, I may say required a little sense of victory, a roll of the drum, to call his powers into full exercise.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
““... But let’s forgive him.
We’ve had a share in one night of his life.
What’ll you bet he ever calls again?””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
