Famous quotes containing the words world and/or cup:
“in your mind inwardly despise
The brittle world so full of doubleness,
With the vile flesh, and right soon arise
Out of your sleep of mortal heaviness;
Subdue the devil with grace and mekeness,”
—Stephen Hawes (1474–1528)
“It is surely easier to confess a murder over a cup of coffee than in front of a jury.”
