Famous quotes containing the words kindred and/or people:

“‘Now must we sing and sing the best we can,

Convicted cowards all, by kindred slain.”

“Some people are under the impression that all that is required to make a good fisherman is the ability to tell lies easily and without blushing; but this is a mistake. Mere bald fabrication is useless; the veriest tyro can manage that. It is in the circumstantial detail, the embellishing touches of probability, the general air of scrupulous—almost of pedantic—veracity, that the experienced angler is seen.”
—Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927)
