Famous quotes containing the words gins and/or history:
“Hark, hark, the lark at heaven’s gate sings,
And Phoebus’ gins arise,
His steeds to water at those springs
On chaliced flowers that lies;
And winking Mary-buds begin to ope their golden eyes;
With every thing that pretty is, my lady sweet, arise;
Arise, arise!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“America is the only nation in history which miraculously has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization.”
