The right honourable gentleman is reminiscent of a poker. The only difference is that a poker gives off the occasional signs of warmth. (On Robert Peel).
Benjamin Disraeli
The longer the battle lasts the more force we'll have to use!
Georgy Zhukov
Friendship is far more tragic than love. It lasts longer.
Oscar Wilde
The sound of a kiss is not so loud as that of a cannon, but its echo lasts a deal longer.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
For many years I had been hearing the comment that fractals make beautiful pictures, but are pretty useless. I was irritated because important applications always take some time to be revealed.
