Thousand Miles

Famous quotes containing the words thousand and/or miles:

“In early times every sort of advantage tends to become a military advantage; such is the best way, then, to keep it alive. But the Jewish advantage never did so; beginning in religion, contrary to a thousand analogies, it remained religious. For that we care for them; from that have issued endless consequences.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

“De Camptown racetrack five miles long—
Oh! doo-dah-day!”
