“I never hear the rattling of dice that it does not sound to me like the funeral bell of the whole family”
Douglas Jerrold
“DIE, n. The singular of "dice." We seldom hear the word, because there is a prohibitory proverb, "Never say die." At long intervals, however, some one says: "The die is cast," which is not true, for it is cut. The word is found in an immortal couplet by that eminent poet and domestic economist, Senator Depew:A cube of cheese no larger than a die May bait the trap to catch a nibbling mie.”
Ambrose Bierce
“DIE, n. The singular of "dice." We seldom hear the word, because there is a prohibitory proverb, "Never say die."”
“We are rolling the dice with you, Judge. It's kind of interesting, this Kabuki dance we have in these hearings here, as if the public doesn't have a right to know what you think about fundamental issues facing them.”
Joseph Biden
“We are rolling the dice with you, judge, ... It's kind of interesting, this Kabuki dance we have in these hearings here, as if the public doesn't have a right to know what you think about fundamental issues facing them.”
“We have wasted History like a bunch of drunks shooting dice back in the men's crapper of the local bar”
Charles Bukowski
