Famous quotes containing the words ten and/or day:
“Earthly minds, like mud walls, resist the strongest batteries: and though, perhaps, sometimes the force of a clear argument may make some impression, yet they nevertheless stand firm, and keep out the enemy, truth, that would captivate or disturb them. Tell a man passionately in love, that he is jilted; bring a score of witnesses of the falsehood of his mistress, it is ten to one but three kind words of hers shall invalidate all their testimonies.”
—John Locke (16321704)
“I will wait and watch till the day of David at last shall be finished, and wisdom no more fox-faced, and the blood gets back its flame.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
