Telling

Famous quotes containing the word telling:

    “There’s no telling what might have happened to our defense budget if Saddam Hussein hadn’t invaded Kuwait that August and set everyone gearing up for World War II½.

    “I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

    And that has made all the difference.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
