Famous quotes containing the word wrong:

    I suppose that’s one of the ironies of life—doing the wrong thing at the right moment.
    Charlie Chaplin (1889–1977)

    One who never turned his back but marched breast forward,
    Never doubted clouds would break,

    Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better,
    Sleep to wake.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.
