Famous quotes containing the words cardinal and/or numbers:
“The Poles do not know how to hate, thank God.”
—Stefan, Cardinal Wyszynski (19011981)
“He bundles every forkful in its place,
And tags and numbers it for future reference,
So he can find and easily dislodge it
In the unloading. Silas does that well.
He takes it out in bunches like birds nests.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
