Famous quotes containing the words kerry and/or burke:

    He’d gone to great expense
    Keeping all the Kerry men
    Out of that crazy fight;
    That he might be there himself
    Had travelled half the night.
    How goes the weather?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I declare this tower is my symbol; I declare
    This winding, gyring, spiring treadmill of a stair is my ancestrail stair;
    That Goldsmith and the Dean, Berkeley and Burke have travelled there.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
