Sap Number

Famous quotes containing the words sap and/or number:

    It was you that broke the new wood,
    Now is a time for carving.

    Let there be commerce between us.

    Even in ordinary speech we call a person unreasonable whose outlook is narrow, who is conscious of one thing only at a time, and who is consequently the prey of his own caprice, whilst we describe a person as reasonable whose outlook is comprehensive, who is capable of looking at more than one side of a question and of grasping a number of details as parts of a whole.
    G. Dawes Hicks (1862–1941)
