Short

Famous quotes containing the word short:

    In my short experience of human life, the outward obstacles, if there were any such, have not been living men, but the institutions of the dead.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    In short I must confide in you to take such care of the men under you as an economical householder would of his own family, doing every thing within himself as far as he can, and calling for as few supplies as possible. The less you depend for supplies from this quarter, the less you will be disappointed.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    For one swallow does not make a summer, nor does one day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
