Test Public Void

Famous quotes containing the words test, public and/or void:

    It is the test of a novel writer’s art that he conceal his snake-in-the-grass; but the reader may be sure that it is always there.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    A ‘spasm band’ is a miscellaneous collection of a soap box, tin cans, pan tops, nails, drumsticks, and little Negro boys. When mixed in the proper proportions this results in the wildest shuffle dancing, accompanied by a bumping rhythm.
    —For the City of New Orleans, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Happy the Man, who void of Cares and Strife,
    In Silken, or in Leathern Purse retains
    A Splendid Shilling: He nor hears with Pain
    New Oysters cry’d, nor sighs for chearful Ale;
    John Phillips (1676–1709)
