Famous quotes containing the words robinson and/or estate:
“But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
“Good-morning,” and he glittered when he walked.”

“Sweet are the thoughts that savour of content,
The quiet mind is richer than a crown;
Sweet are the nights in careless slumber spent,
The poor estate scorns Fortune’s angry frown.
Such sweet content, such minds, such sleep, such bliss,
Beggars enjoy, when princes oft do miss.”
—Robert Greene (1558?–1592)
