Elder Son

Famous quotes containing the words elder and/or son:

    So doth, so is Religion; and this blind-
    ness too much light breeds; but unmoved thou
    Of force must one, and forc’d but one allow;
    And the right; ask thy father which is she,
    let him ask his; though truth and falsehood be
    Near twins, yet truth a little elder is;
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    Give me your blessing; truth will come to light; murder cannot be hid long; a man’s son may, but in the end truth will out.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
