CHOICE  << Prev Page    Displaying page 3 of 3 [ Also see Chance Change Decision Destiny Duty Freedom God Liberty Luck Necessity Opportunity Preference Prudence Resolution Suffrage Taste Ultimatum Variety Will Wishes ] When to elect there is but one,   'Tis Hobson's Choice; take that or none.       - Thomas Ward, England's Reformation          (canto IV, l. 896),         "Hobson's Choice" explained in the "Spectator" no. 509 Great God! I'd rather be   A Pagan, suckled in a creed outworn;     So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,       Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;         Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea,           Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.       - William Wordsworth, Miscellaneous Sonnets          (pt. I, sonnet XXXIII) A strange alternative . . .   Must women have a doctor or a dance?       - Edward Young, Love of Fame          (satire V, l. 189) Displaying page 3 of 3 for this topic:   << Prev  1 2 [3] Last Revised: 2008 June 30 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
