Surely Constant Random

Famous quotes containing the words surely, constant and/or random:

    I knew you forever and you were always old,
    soft white lady of my heart. Surely you would scold
    me for sitting up late, reading your letters....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The thirsty earth soaks up the rain,
    And drinks, and gapes for drink again.
    The plants suck in the earth, and are
    With constant drinking fresh and fair.
    Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)

    We should stop looking to law to provide the final answer.... Law cannot save us from ourselves.... We have to go out and try to accomplish our goals and resolve disagreements by doing what we think is right. That energy and resourcefulness, not millions of legal cubicles, is what was great about America. Let judgment and personal conviction be important again.
    Philip K. Howard, U.S. lawyer. The Death of Common Sense: How Law Is Suffocating America, pp. 186-87, Random House (1994)
