Famous quotes containing the words places, england and/or bearing:

    The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one’s soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive—you are leaking.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)

    Always in England if you had the type of brain that was capable of understanding T.S. Eliot’s poetry or Kant’s logic, you could be sure of finding large numbers of people who would hate you violently.
    D.J. Taylor (b. 1960)

    When we our betters see bearing our woes,
    We scarcely think our miseries our foes.
    Who alone suffers, suffers most i’ the mind,
    Leaving free things and happy shows behind.
    But then the mind much sufferance doth o’er skip,
    When grief hath mates, and bearing fellowship.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
