Trouble

Famous quotes containing the word trouble:

    Y’know the trouble with us is, we’ve both got the same disease—money, and happy ways of spending it.
    Mark Hanna, and Nathan Hertz. Honey Parker (Yvette Vickers)

    The trouble with most problem-solving books for parents is that they start with the idea that the child has a problem. Then they try to tell us how to fix the child, or else, after blaming the parent, they suggest how we can fix ourselves.
    Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    Amongst the learned the lawyers claim first place, the most self-satisfied class of people, as they roll their rock of Sisyphus and string together six hundred laws in the same breath, no matter whether relevant or not, piling up opinion on opinion and gloss on gloss to make their profession seem the most difficult of all. Anything which causes trouble has special merit in their eyes.
    Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
