Famous quotes containing the words irish and/or masters:

    “I hope you will not be washed away by the Irish sea.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The beasts, the fishes, and the winged fowls
    Are their males’ subjects and at their controls:
    Man, more divine, the master of all these,
    Lord of the wide world and wild watery seas,
    Indued with intellectual sense and souls,
    Of more pre-eminence than fish and fowls,
    Are masters to their females, and their lords:
    Then let your will attend on their accords.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
