Famous quotes containing the words coin and/or magicians:
“The moral equalizes all; enriches, empowers all. It is the coin which buys all, and which all find in their pocket. Under the whip of the driver, the slave shall feel his equality with saints and heroes.”

And my body laid in grave,
Ere a rusty stock o coal-black smith
My maidenhead should have.”
