Famous quotes containing the words taylor and/or smith:

    The Knight’s bones are dust,
    And his good sword rust:—
    His soul is with the saints, I trust.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Growing old is no gradual decline, but a series of tumbles, full of sorrow, from one ledge to another. Yet when we pick ourselves up we find no bones are broken; while not unpleasing is the new terrace which stretches out unexplored before us.
    —Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)
