Famous quotes containing the words tom and/or douglas:
“And the Angel told Tom if he’d be a good boy,
He’d have God for his father & never want joy.
And so Tom awoke and we rose in the dark
And got with our bags & our brushes to work.
Tho’ the morning was cold, Tom was happy & warm,
So if all do their duty, they need not fear harm.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“You can tell the ideals of a nation by its advertisements.”
—Norman Douglas (1868–1952)
