Famous quotes containing the words tenth and/or place:
“Of Ickworths boys, their fathers joys,
There is but one a bad one;
The tenth is he, the parsons fee,
And indeed he is a sad one.
No love of fame, no sense of shame,
And a bad heart, let me tell ye:
Without, all brass; within, all ass,
And the puppys name is Felly.”
—Horace Walpole (17171797)
“Events that are predestined require but little management. They manage themselves. They slip into place while we sleep, and suddenly we are aware that the thing we fear to attempt, is already accomplished.”
