Masters

Famous quotes containing the word masters:

    The President has paid dear for his White House. It has commonly cost him all his peace, and the best of his manly attributes. To preserve for a short time so conspicuous an appearance before the world, he is content to eat dust before the real masters who stand erect behind the throne.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Now, out of my way, you masters of a thousand fleas. Allah be with you, but I doubt it.
    Miles Malleson (1888–1969)

    The eye-balls were seared with a milky mucus;
    The madness of a dying soul
    Was written on her face—
    But the multitude saw why she wore the bandage.”
    —Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
