Famous quotes containing the words drayton and/or sawyer:
“But when the bowels of the earth were sought,
And men her golden entrails did espy,
This mischief then into the world was brought,
This framed the mint which coined our misery.
...
And thus began thexordium of our woes,
The fatal dumb-show of our misery;
Here sprang the tree on which our mischief grows,
The dreary subject of worlds tragedy.”
—Michael Drayton (15631631)
“But thats always the way; it dont make no difference whether you do right or wrong, a persons conscience aint got no sense, and just goes for him anyway.... It takes up more room than all the rest of a persons insides, and yet aint no good, nohow. Tom Sawyer thinks the same.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
