Famous quotes containing the words selection and/or general:
“It is the highest and most legitimate pride of an Englishman to have the letters M.P. written after his name. No selection from the alphabet, no doctorship, no fellowship, be it of ever so learned or royal a society, no knightship,—not though it be of the Garter,—confers so fair an honour.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“The general so likes your music, that he desires you for love’s sake to make no more noise with it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
