Single Species

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or species:

    One is no number, mayds are nothing then,
    Without the sweet societie of men.
    Wilt thou live single still? one shalt thou bee,
    Though never-singling Hymen couple thee.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man’s appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
