Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or taverns:

    a notable prince that was called King John;
    And he ruled England with main and with might,
    For he did great wrong, and maintained little right.
    —Unknown. King John and the Abbot of Canterbury (l. 2–4)

    We for a certainty are not the first
    Have sat in taverns while the tempest hurled
    Their hopeful plans to emptiness, and cursed
    Whatever brute and blackguard made the world.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
